Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 13
Claim 1
Independent Claim 238 words
A plasticized polycarbonate composition comprising in admixture a high molecular weight aromatic carbonate polymer and a minor amount of a cyclic phosphazene of the following formula: ##STR7## R and R 1 are independently selected from the group consisting of C 1 to C 30 alkyl; C 1 to C 30 alkoxy; aryl of 6 to 14 carbon atoms; substituted aryl wherein the substituents are selected from one or more halogen, C 1 to C 30 alkyl or C 1 to C 30 alkoxy; aryloxy of 6 to 14 carbon atoms; substituted aryloxy wherein the substituents are selected from one or more halogen, C 1 -C 30 alkyl, and C 1 -C 30 alkoxy; alkylthio of 1 to 30 carbon atoms; arylthio of 6 to 14 carbon atoms; substituted arylthio wherein the substituents are selected from one or more halogen, C 1 to C 30 alkyl, and C 1 to C 30 alkoxy; --NR 2 R 3 wherein R 2 and R 3 are independently selected from hydrogen; C 1 to C 30 alkyl; aryl of 6 to 14 carbon atoms; substituted aryl wherein the substituents are selected from one or more halogen, C 1 to C 30 alkyl, C 1 to C 30 alkoxy, with the proviso that at least one of R 2 or R 3 is other than hydrogen; halogen; with the proviso that at least one of R or R 1 is other than halogen.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 238 words
A plasticized polycarbonate composition comprising in admixture a high molecular weight aromatic carbonate polymer and a minor amount of a cyclic phosphazene of the following formula: ##STR7## R and R 1 are independently selected from the group consisting of C 1 to C 30 alkyl; C 1 to C 30 alkoxy; aryl of 6 to 14 carbon atoms; substituted aryl wherein the substituents are selected from one or more halogen, C 1 to C 30 alkyl or C 1 to C 30 alkoxy; aryloxy of 6 to 14 carbon atoms; substituted aryloxy wherein the substituents are selected from one or more halogen, C 1 -C 30 alkyl, and C 1 -C 30 alkoxy; alkylthio of 1 to 30 carbon atoms; arylthio of 6 to 14 carbon atoms; substituted arylthio wherein the substituents are selected from one or more halogen, C 1 to C 30 alkyl, and C 1 to C 30 alkoxy; --NR 2 R 3 wherein R 2 and R 3 are independently selected from hydrogen; C 1 to C 30 alkyl; aryl of 6 to 14 carbon atoms; substituted aryl wherein the substituents are selected from one or more halogen, C 1 to C 30 alkyl, C 1 to C 30 alkoxy, with the proviso that at least one of R 2 or R 3 is other than hydrogen; halogen; with the proviso that at least one of R or R 1 is other than halogen.
