Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 7
Claim 1
Independent Claim 114 words
A composition comprising a. a high molecular weight polymer having as a repeating unit an aromatic carbonate ##STR2## said polymer endcapped with XR wherein X is derived from an organic moiety having a single substituent reactive with the acidic hydrogen of a phenol or the chlorine of phosgene and R is selected from the group consisting of the hydrocarbyl portion of the following acids or acid chlorides; stearic, isostearic, palmitic, myristic, lauric, pelagronic, caproic, caprylic, oleic, linoleic and abietic in admixture with b. about one to about ten parts of a polyolefin selected from the group consisting of polyethylene or polypropylene, said parts per 100 parts by weight of the polymer of section a.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 114 words
A composition comprising a. a high molecular weight polymer having as a repeating unit an aromatic carbonate ##STR2## said polymer endcapped with XR wherein X is derived from an organic moiety having a single substituent reactive with the acidic hydrogen of a phenol or the chlorine of phosgene and R is selected from the group consisting of the hydrocarbyl portion of the following acids or acid chlorides; stearic, isostearic, palmitic, myristic, lauric, pelagronic, caproic, caprylic, oleic, linoleic and abietic in admixture with b. about one to about ten parts of a polyolefin selected from the group consisting of polyethylene or polypropylene, said parts per 100 parts by weight of the polymer of section a.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 19 words
