Abstract

Abstract Polysiloxane-polycarbonate block copolymers provide ductile, structural adhesive layers for bonding laminates. They are particularly useful as an adhesive and structural element in preparing polycarbonate containing composites which retain their integrity. Laminates of glass, polycarbonate, other resins separately and in various combinations and the adhesive layer provide glazing and structural units of relatively light weight and thickness which have good energy absorption, clarity, strength and integrity and are penetration resistant over a wide range of temperatures.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 5
Claim 1
Independent Claim 130 words
A laminate of polycarbonate and other material selected from glass or polycarbonate having as adhesive interlayer block polysiloxane-polycarbonate copolymer prepared by a reacting (A) a halogen chain-stopped polydiorganosiloxane composed of from about 5 to 200 chemically combined diorganosiloxy units consisting essentially of dialkylsiloxy units which are connected to each other by silicon-oxygen-silicon linkages wherein each of the silicon atoms has two organo radicals attached through a carbon-silicon bond, and (B) a dihydric phenol having the formula ##STR6## where Z is a member selected from the class consisting of hydrogen, lower alkyl radicals and halogen radicals and combinations thereof, and R is a member selected from the class consisting of hydrogen, hydrocarbon and halogenated hydrocarbon radicals, and phosgenating the purified reaction product until the resulting copolymer achieves a maximum intrinsic viscosity,
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 130 words
A laminate of polycarbonate and other material selected from glass or polycarbonate having as adhesive interlayer block polysiloxane-polycarbonate copolymer prepared by a reacting (A) a halogen chain-stopped polydiorganosiloxane composed of from about 5 to 200 chemically combined diorganosiloxy units consisting essentially of dialkylsiloxy units which are connected to each other by silicon-oxygen-silicon linkages wherein each of the silicon atoms has two organo radicals attached through a carbon-silicon bond, and (B) a dihydric phenol having the formula ##STR6## where Z is a member selected from the class consisting of hydrogen, lower alkyl radicals and halogen radicals and combinations thereof, and R is a member selected from the class consisting of hydrogen, hydrocarbon and halogenated hydrocarbon radicals, and phosgenating the purified reaction product until the resulting copolymer achieves a maximum intrinsic viscosity,
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 12 words
A laminate as in claim 1 wherein said other material is glass.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 12 words
A laminate as in claim 1 wherein said other material is polycarbonate.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 17 words
A laminate as in claim 3 wherein the exposed surfaces of said polycarbonate have a mar-resistant coating.
