Abstract:
A polycarbonate composition is disclosed having zero or minimum halogen content, while also exhibiting improved fire-retardance and/or drip-resistant characteristics. The composition comprises an effective amount of a polycarbonate, an anti-dripping agent, an aromatic sulfone sulfonate, an aromatic sulfonate, a synergistic combination of an elastomer-modified graft copolymer and a polysiloxane-polycarbonate copolymer, and an optional siloxane oligomer. The polycarbonate composition is useful for manufacture of electronic and mechanical articles, among others.

Abstract:
Branched polycarbonates having properties suitable for blow molding are prepared by equilibrating a linear or branched aromatic polycarbonate with certain tetraphenols, especially 2,2,5,5-tetrakis (4-hydroxyphenyl)hexane and �1,1-bis(p-hydroxyphenyl)ethyl!-phenyl ether.
