Abstract

The present invention relates to copolycarbonates and a composition comprising the same. The copolycarbonate according to the present invention has a structure in which specific siloxane compounds are introduced in the main chain of polycarbonate and thus exhibits the effects of improving impact strength at room temperature, impact strength at low-temperature and melt index.

First claim

a repeating unit represented by the following Formula 1,
a repeating unit represented by the following Formula 2, and
a repeating unit represented by the following Formula 3:

in the above Formula 1,
each of R 1 , R 2 , R 3 and R 4 is independently hydrogen, C 1-10 alkyl, or halogen, and
Z is C 1-10 alkylene unsubstituted or substituted by phenyl, C 3-10 cycloalkylene, O, S, SO, SO 2 , or CO,

in the above Formula 2,
each of Ra is independently C 1-10 alkylene,
each of Y is independently C 1-10 alkoxy,
each of R 5 is independently hydrogen, or C 1-13 alkyl, and
n is an integer of 10 to 35,

in the above Formula 3,
each of Rb is independently C 1-10 alkylene,
each of Y′ is independently C 1-10 alkoxy,
each of R 6 is independently hydrogen, or C 1-13 alkyl, and
m is an integer of 45 to 85,
wherein a ratio of the weight of the repeating unit represented by Formula 1 to the total weight of the repeating units represented by Formula 2 and Formula 3 is 1:0.04 to 1:0.07.

2. The copolycarbonate of claim 1 wherein
the repeating unit represented by the Formula 1 is derived from one or more aromatic diol compounds selected from the group consisting of bis(4-hydroxyphenyl)methane, bis(4-hydroxyphenyl)ether, bis(4-hydroxyphenyl)sulfone, bis(4-hydroxyphenyl)sulfoxide, bis(4-hydroxyphenyl)sulfide, bis(4-hydroxyphenyl)ketone, 1,1-bis(4-hydroxyphenyl)ethane, bisphenol A, 2,2-bis(4-hydroxyphenyl)butane, 1,1-bis(4-hydroxyphenyl)cyclohexane, 2,2-bis(4-hydroxyl-3,5-dibromophenyl)propane, 2,2-bis(4-hydroxy-3,5-dichlorophenyl)propane, 2,2-bis(4-hydroxy-3-bromophenyl)propane, 2,2-bis(4-hydroxy-3-chlorophenyl)propane, 2,2-bis(4-hydroxy-3-methylphenyl)propane, 2,2-bis(4-hydroxy-3,5-dimethyl)propane, 1,1 -bis(4-hydroxyphenyl)- 1-phenylethane, bis(4-hydroxyphenyl)diphenylmethane, and a, ω-bis[3-(o-hydroxyphenyl)propyl]polydimethylsilmane.

3. The copolycarbonate of claim 1 wherein
the repeating unit represented by the Formula 1 is represented by the following Formula 1-1:

4. The copolycarbonate of claim 1 wherein
each of R 5 is independently C 1-6 alkyl.

5. The copolycarbonate of claim 1 wherein
each of R 6 is independently C 1-6 alkyl.

6. The copolycarbonate of claim 1 wherein
R 5 and R 6 are the same as each other.

7. The copolycarbonate of claim 1 wherein
the repeating unit represented by the Formula 2 is represented by the following Formula 2-1:

8. The copolycarbonate of claim 1 wherein
the repeating unit represented by the Formula 3 is represented by the following Formula 3-1:

9. The copolycarbonate of claim 1 wherein
the copolycarbonate has a weight average molecular weight of 15,000 to 35,000 g/mol.

10. A polycarbonate composition which comprises the copolycarbonate of claim 1 , and a polycarbonate.

11. The polycarbonate composition of claim 10 wherein
the polycarbonate comprises the repeating unit represented by the following Formula 4:

in the above Formula 4,
each of R′ 1 , R′ 2 , R′ 3 and R′ 4 are independently hydrogen, C 1-10 alkyl, or halogen, and
Z′ is C 1-10 alkylene unsubstituted or substituted by phenyl, C 3-10 cycloalkylene, O, S, SO, SO 2 , or CO.

12. The polycarbonate composition of claim 10 wherein the weight ratio of the copolycarbonate and the polycarbonate is from 99:1 to 1:99.
