Abstract

The invention relates to a polymer mixture which comprises an aromatic polycarbonate, a styrene-containing copolymer and/or a styrene-containing graft polymer and a flame-retardant. It has been found that the use of a certain type of flame-retardants, namely oligomeric phosphates leads to a polymer mixture having improved properties. In particular to a polymer mixture having a good combination of flame retardancy, non-juicing characteristics of the flame retardant, good plastifying effect and good heat resistance.
