Abstract

See full text

This invention involves a novel process for preparing branched polycarbonates employing a solid state polycondensation process; specifically, subjecting a linear crystallized oligomer derived from dihydroxydiaryl compound and a diaryl carbonate to solid state polycondensation process by heating the said oligomer at a temperature which is higher than the glass transition temperature but below its melting point in the presence of a multifunctional phenol and an alkali or alkaline metal salt or bisphenol or tetraalkylammonium hydroxide, carboxylate or bicarboxylate catalyst, the reaction being effected under inert atmosphere.
