Abstract
Abstract Mixtures of aromatic polycarbonates and aromatic polyester-carbonates having a specific polycarbonate/polyester-carbonate ratio and a defined ester content in the polyester-carbonates, at least one of the polycondensates containing C 8 -C 9 -alkylated phenyl end groups, possess a reduced tendency to stress cracking.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 10
Claim 1
Independent Claim
151 words
Mixtures consisting of: I. an aromatic polycarbonate and II. an aromatic polyester-carbonate, characterized in that: (a) the mixture contains 5 to 70% by weight of I and 95 to 30% by weight of II, the percentages of I and II relating to the sum of I+II, (b) the ester group content of the polyester-carbonate II is 60 to 95 mol%, relative to the sum of ester and carbonate groups in II, and (c) at least one of the components I and II contains end groups of the formula ##STR5## wherein --X-- represents --O-- or --CO-- and R represents a branched alkyl radical having 8 to 9 C atoms, subject to the proviso that the proportion of methyl hydrogen atoms in the alkyl radical R is 47 to 89%, relative to the total of the hydrogen atoms in the alkyl radical, and that R is in the o-position or in the p-position.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
151 words
Mixtures consisting of: I. an aromatic polycarbonate and II. an aromatic polyester-carbonate, characterized in that: (a) the mixture contains 5 to 70% by weight of I and 95 to 30% by weight of II, the percentages of I and II relating to the sum of I+II, (b) the ester group content of the polyester-carbonate II is 60 to 95 mol%, relative to the sum of ester and carbonate groups in II, and (c) at least one of the components I and II contains end groups of the formula ##STR5## wherein --X-- represents --O-- or --CO-- and R represents a branched alkyl radical having 8 to 9 C atoms, subject to the proviso that the proportion of methyl hydrogen atoms in the alkyl radical R is 47 to 89%, relative to the total of the hydrogen atoms in the alkyl radical, and that R is in the o-position or in the p-position.
