Abstract: A polycarbonate composition includes particular amounts of a bisphenol A polycarbonate homopolymer, a particular polycarbonate-siloxane copolymer and a phosphazene flame retardant Methods of making the composition and articles including the composition are also described.

Abstract: A poly(carbonate-siloxane) composition comprising: a poly(carbonate-siloxane) copolymer comprising carbonate units and siloxane units, wherein a siloxane content is greater than 25 wt % to less than 70 wt %, based on the total weight of the poly (carbonate-siloxane) copolymer and wherein the weight average molecular weight of the poly (carbonate-siloxane) copolymer is greater than 30,000 g/mol, as measured by gel permeation chromatography using a crosslinked styrene-divinyl benzene column, using polystyrene standards and calibrated for polycarbonate; a homopolycarbonate comprising a bisphenol A homopolycarbonate; a colorant composition comprising an organic colorant, an inorganic pigment, or a combination thereof, wherein the colorant composition optionally comprises titanium dioxide in an amount of 0.

Abstract: A thermoplastic composition comprising: a homopolycarbonate; a poly(carbonate siloxane) component present in an amount effective to provide 0.5-20 wt % total siloxane content; an antimicrobial agent comprising silver zirconium phosphate, silver phosphate glass, or a combination thereof; optionally, an additive composition; each based on the total weight of the composition which totals to 100 wt %.

Abstract: A thermoplastic composition includes: 40 to 75 wt % of a poly(carbonate-siloxane-arylate); 5 to 45 wt % of a poly(carbonate-siloxane) present in an amount effective to provide 0.75 to 7 wt % of siloxane units; 10 to 40 wt % of a polycarbonate homopolymer; 5 to 15 wt % of an organophosphorus compound in an amount effective to provide 0.1 to 1 wt % of phosphorus; and optionally, 0.1 to 10 wt % of an additive composition. The thermoplastic composition has a melt volume flow rate of greater than 6 cm3/10 min.
