Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A method for the continuous multi-stage manufacture of an end-capped polycarbonate includes, i) preparing a monomer mixture in a monomer mixing stage by mixing a bisphenol, a diaryl carbonate and optionally a transesterification catalyst in at least one monomer mixing device, ii) preparing a carbonate oligomer in an oligomerisation stage by reacting the monomer mixture in at least one oligomerisation reactor, and iii) preparing the polycarbonate in a polymerisation stage by further reacting the carbonate oligomer of the oligomerisation stage in at least one polymerisation reactor, in which an end-capping agent different from phenol and having a single phenolic hydroxy group is added to the monomer mixture in the monomer mixing stage and/or to at least one oligomerisation reactor in the oligomerisation stage.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. A method for the continuous multi-stage manufacture of an end- capped polycarbonate comprising, i) preparing a monomer mixture in a monomer mixing stage by mixing bisphenol A, diphenyl carbonate and a beta catalyst in at least one monomer mixing device, ii) preparing a carbonate oligomer in an oligomerization stage by reacting said monomer mixture in at least one oligomerization reactor, wherein an alpha catalyst is added to the first of said at le…
