3. in moulding process, handle:
No matter polycarbonate be how to prepare also no matter its before whether carried out compounding, said treatment step can occur in molded polycarbonate is become in the process of goods.In said moulding process, at high temperature handle the polycarbonate time enough, so that the polymolecularity of said polycarbonate improves more than 10%.In preferred embodiments, polycarbonate polymolecularity in moulding process has increased more than 12%, for example more than 14%, more than 16%, more than 18%, more than 20%; More than 22%, more than 24%, more than 26%, more than 28%, more than 30%, more than 32%; More than 34%, more than 36%, more than 38%, more than 40%, more than 42%; More than 44%, more than 46%, more than 48%, more than 50%, and more than 52%.
Usually, it is following more than 10 minutes that said molding step occurs in hot conditions (for example greater than 320 ℃, greater than 330 ℃, and/or greater than 340 ℃), for example more than 15 minutes, and more than 20 minutes, more than 25 minutes, and more than 30 minutes.Those of ordinary skills can understand after reading the disclosure: polycarbonate required residence time in mold apparatus will change according to the temperature of this equipment etc.The data that are included in the following embodiment table 4 partly further specify the notion of in molding step, handling said polycarbonate.
Those of skill in the art will appreciate that the step of said processing polycarbonate can occur in the arbitrary stage or arbitrary combination in the above stage of enumerating.

Specifically described the present invention, the elaboration of the following example is used for providing to those of ordinary skill in the art the detailed description of the method that to how par this paper requires to protect, and is not intended to restriction its invention protection domain that the contriver thought.Only if point out in addition, umber is by weight, and temperature unit is ℃.
Molecular-weight determination
Through the molecular weight character of gel permeation chromatography (GPC) assay determination polymkeric substance, wherein use PS molecular weight standard thing to make up the wide standard calibration curve that is used to measure polymericular weight.The temperature of gel permeation chromatographic column is about 25 ℃, and moving phase is chloroform.Solvent for use is CHCl 34: 1 mixtures (for terpolymer, 60% HQ multipolymer and 90% MeHQ multipolymer, CHCl is used in combination 3With 1,1,1,3,3,3-hexafluoroisopropanol (HFIP)).At first said terpolymer was handled in ultra sonic bath 15 minutes, vibrated again 2 hours.Polydispersity index (PDI) calculates divided by number-average molecular weight (Mw/Mn) through weight-average molecular weight.
NMR analyzes
All NMR spectrums obtain on Bruker Avance 400MHz nmr spectrometer for 55 ℃ in temperature.Prepared in 5% solution (wt/v) of sym.-tetrachloroethane-d2 (CAS#33685-54-0) and be used for analyzing.All spectrums obtain by spin rate 20Hz. 1H NMR measurement is to utilize 5mm diameter QNP probe to carry out at 400MHz, wherein adopts the sweep length (13~-3ppm chemical shift interval) of 6410Hz, 30 ° flip angle, 10 seconds relaxation time, the data point of 64k and 256 scanning.All data processing are to utilize the pack processing of GRC exploitation (by T.A.Early exploitation, inner publication 94CRD204) to carry out.For 1H NMR, data processing comprises the apodization (apodization) with 0.3Hz.Used relevant description that can detected NMR peak is meant this methodological detectivity of employing among the application.The lower method of sensitivity should be understood and the peak can not be detected.
Melt volume speed
Melt strength is the measuring of complicated rheological property of polymkeric substance, and it can be represented through melt index ratio (MIR).This is the ratio of melt volume speed of under 2.16kg bears a heavy burden, measuring (MVR) and the MVR that under the 21.6kg heavy burden, measures.Branching in the polycarbonate terpolymer causes complicated rheology.Known branching polycarbonate has the melt strength higher than linear polycarbonate.Used test temperature is 280 ℃.
The parallel plate rheology
Except MIR, the shearing thinning behavior of polymkeric substance (shear thinning behavior) also can be used for characterizing melt strength.As previously mentioned, branching polycarbonate has the melt strength higher than linear polycarbonate.It is also known that branching causes stronger shearing thinning behavior.Therefore, the terpolymer that adopts various melt temperatures on the S-extrusion system, to prepare is carried out the test of parallel plate rheology.For each sample, when two kinds of melt temperatures (promptly 240 and 260 ℃), carry out the frequency sweeping of 0.1~500 radian per second.Utilize the data of gained, will the complex viscosity when 100 radian per seconds equal 2000 handkerchiefs during second residing temperature be used as melt temperature (PPT).The melt temperature of guaranteeing gained falls between the actual tests temperature to allow interpolation.When the melt temperature of gained, also measured the plural melt viscosity when shearing rate 1 radian per second.R *Be calculated as the ratio of plural melt viscosity and plural melt viscosity when 100 radian per seconds when 1 radian per second, wherein the latter is fixed in 2000 handkerchief seconds of interpolation at present.Higher R *Thereby the shearing thinning behavior that value explanation is strong and because branching and higher melt strength.
1. in melt polymerization process, handle polycarbonate
Use the melt polymerization process of activatory diaryl carbonate (BMSC) to be used to prepare several kinds of terpolymers that BPA, HQ and MeHQ by mol ratio 33/33/34 form.Prepared material through in polymerization process, in reactive extruder, using multiple melt temperature with higher polymolecularity.As can from appended form, observe, use R *The melt strength of these materials that characterize with MIR has improved.The controlled rising that therefore the forcing machine melt temperature is described can be used to prepare the terpolymer that melt strength improves.
