ABSTRACT:
A method is provided for making flame retardant polycarbonates by phosgenating a mixture of bisphenols having up to about 50 mole % of tetrahalobisphenols, such as tetrabromobisphenols. There is employed a mixture of a phase transfer catalyst and a tertiary organic amine to provide high molecular weight copolymer without excessive phosgene usage.
