Polycarbonate composition

Abstract

Disclosed herein is a thermoplastic composition comprising, based on the total weight of the composition (A) from 85-97 wt. % of aromatic polycarbonate, (B) from 3-12 wt. % of a core-shell impact modifier wherein the core is comprised of silicone and the shell comprised of acrylate, (C) from 0.01-1.5 wt. % of a flame retardant, (D) from 0.01-2 wt. % of anti-drip agent, wherein the sum of components (A)-(D) is at least 95 wt. % of the total weight of the composition, and wherein the composition is selected to have a melt volume rate of from 5-20 cm3/10 min. measured in accordance with ISO 1133 (300° C., 1.2 kg), and a UL flame retardancy rating of V0 at 1.2 mm, and a notched Izod Impact strength of at least 35 kJ/m2 at a temperature of −50° C. measured in accordance with ISO 180/A on injection moulded test bars of 80×10×3 mm.
