Male, et. al., U.S. patent application 092,940, discloses blends comprising (i) a polyetherimide (ii) a siloxane polyetherimide copolymer and a perfluorocarbon, and discloses that the siloxane polyetherimide copolymer is employed in an impact strength enhancing concentration; for example, from about 2% to about 90% by weight of the blend, and that the perfluorocarbon polymer is employed in a flammability-retarding amount, typically from about 0.2% by weight to 20% by weight of the polymer blend. EP 266915 published May 11, 1988 and U.S. patent application 925,916 filed November 3, 1986, disclose blends comprising (i) a polyetherimide and (ϋ) a siloxane polyetherimide copolymer in an impact strength enhancing concentration, for example from about 2% to about 90% by weight of the blend. While the foregoing discloses improving the impact
