The review discusses poly(ester-carbonate)s (PECAs for brief), their production, characterization and their use. Great emphasis is on their production via ester-carbonate exchange and in particular on the copolymer obtained when mixing and heating poly(butylene terephthalate) (PBT for brief) or poly(ethyylene terephthalate) (PET for brief) together with poly(bisphenol A carbonate) (PC for brief). Some notes are added on PECAs with long polyester and /or long polycarbonate blocks and for the case of "transesterification resistant" polymers i.e. when the production of random copolymers via ester-carbonate exchange is impossible under ordinary conditions.

Abstract
The review discusses poly(ester-carbonate)s (PECAs for brief), their production, characterization and their use. Great emphasis is on their production via ester-carbonate exchange and in particular on the copolymer obtained when mixing and heating poly(butylene terephthalate) (PBT for brief) or poly(ethyylene terephthalate) (PET for brief) together with poly(bisphenol A carbonate) (PC for brief). Some notes are added on PECAs with long polyester and /or long polycarbonate blocks and for the case of "transesterification resistant" polymers i.e. when the production of random copolymers via ester-carbonate exchange is impossible under ordinary conditions.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
