Patent number: 5693722Abstract: A process is disclosed whereby a polymeric resin (containing ester and/or carbonate bonds) is readily converted into a resin having a modified molecular structure. Accordingly, a polycyclic carbonate (a monomer or oligomer) is transesterified with the polymer resin in the melt, preferably upon extrusion, optionally in the presence of a catalyst. Significantly, the cyclic carbonates are, by the inventive process, inserted into the structure of the polymer, effecting branching of the molecular structure, a branching which manifests itself in the modified properties of the resin.Type: GrantFiled: December 13, 1996Date of Patent: December 2, 1997Assignees: Bayer Corporation, Bayer AktiengesellschaftInventors: Duane B. Priddy, Jr., Burkhard Kohler, Robert J. Kumpf, Harald Pielartzik
