  • Patent number: 12195623
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a composition for producing a thermoplastic moulding compound containing: A) an aromatic polycarbonate and/or aromatic polyester carbonate containing carboxy groups, wherein the polycarbonate has an acid value ranging from 0.5 to 10 mg of potassium hydroxide/g, determined in dichloromethane/ethanol as the solvent by means of potentiometric titration in accordance with DIN EN ISO 2114, method A in version 2002-06 with ethanolic potassium hydroxide solution at ambient temperature, and a weight-average molecular mass (Mw), determined by gel permeation chromatography at ambient temperature in dichloromethane as the solvent using a BPA polycarbonate standard, ranging from 15,000 to 40,000 g/mol, and B) a polymethyl methacrylate copolymer containing structural units derived from glycidyl methacrylate, wherein the copolymer has an epoxide equivalent weight, determined in dichloromethane as the solvent at ambient temperature in accordance with DIN EN 1877-1 in version 2000-12, of 0.

  • Publication number: 20220145073
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for producing a thermoplastic moulding compound containing A) at least one aromatic polycarbonate and B) an additional polymer that is chemically different from polymer A and that contains at least one type of functional group selected from ester groups, epoxy groups, hydroxyl groups, carboxyl groups and carboxylic anhydride groups, comprising the steps of a) melting and thoroughly mixing the components A and B in the presence of a catalyst according to component Cat a temperature in the range of from 200° C. to 350° C. and b) solidifying the composition by cooling the composition, the component A having an average molecular weight Mw of at least 3000 g/mol, characterised in that, in the method step a), at least one part of the component A is reacted with the component B to form a copolymer, and the catalyst C being a specific phosphonium salt.
