Abstract
Branched polycarbonates are prepared by the reaction of at least one polyepoxy compound, preferably triglycidyl isocyanurate, with at least one carboxylic acid-terminated polycarbonate, preferably of the type prepared by employing t-butyl p-hydroxybenzoate as a chainstopper in an interfacial polycarbonate formation reaction followed by thermal elimination of isobutene. The branched polycarbonates have high melt viscosities and high complex viscosity ratios, and are particularly useful in such operations as blow molding.
