Abstract
Polycarbonate articles having improved properties due to their substantially cross-linked nature are disclosed. The substantially cross-linked articles are formed by forming a product from a polymeric composition comprising a cross-linkable polycarbonate resin containing a photoactive group derived from a benzophenone, and exposing the formed product to an effective dosage of ultraviolet radiation to cause substantial cross-linking throughout the article. Such cross-linking can also be used to obtain films having good scratch resistance properties.
