Abstract

An aromatic carbonate resin composition comprising: PA1 (i) at least one aromatic carbonate resin; and PA1 (ii) a copolyetherester comprised of a multiplicity of long chain ester units and short chain ester units joined head-to-tail through ester linkages, said long chain ester units being comprised of the reaction products of a dicarboxylic acid or its derivative and a poly(alkylene oxide)glycol, and said short chain ester units being comprised of the reaction products of a dicarboxylic acid or its derivative and at least one low molecular weight diol. The compositions contain an amount of said copolyetherester effective to improve the melt flow or processability of the aromatic carbonate resin. The instant compositions may optionally contain an impact modifying amount of at least one impact modifying compound. The instant compositions are useful in the preparation of extruded or molded shaped articles.
