Abstract

A polycarbonate having a principal chain comprising a repeating unit represented by the formula: ##STR1## (a) a substituted phenoxy group represented by the formula (II) ##STR2## (wherein A is as defined in the appended specification) and (b) p-tert-butyl phenoxy group represented by the formula (III) ##STR3## and/or the phenoxy group represented by the formula (IV) ##STR4## bonded to the terminals thereof in the ratio of (a) 10 to 99 mole percent of the said substituted phenoxy group, and (b) 90 to 1 mole percent of p-tert-butylphenoxy group and/or phenoxy group. This polycarbonate has so high a fluidity and an impact resistance that it is moldable into thin or complex shapes.
