Problems solved by technology

However, the addition of such chemical nucleating agents can reduce the molecular weight of the crystalline material and lead to unstable melt viscosities
Furthermore, such chemical nucleating agents can substantially degrade many amorphous materials used in PBT blends, such as polycarbonates and polyestercarbonates, resulting in unstable melt viscosities and other undesirable defects such as splay and Jet (deformation due to turbulence)

preparation example Construction

[0071] During the preparation of polycarbonate, the Friesian rearrangement indicated the repeating units present in the polycarbonate with the following formula:

[0072]

[0073] Where R a , R b , P, q, and X a As defined above. R c It can be a hydroxyl group or carbonate or ether. The polymer chain can be formed by carbonate or ether groups. R d It can be hydrogen or substituted aryl groups. The polymer chain can be formed by substituted aryl groups. For example, the following rearrangements can occur (linear fries, branched / ether fries, and acid fries):

[0074] Straight chain fries

[0075] Branched Chain / Ether Fries

[0076] Sour Fries

[0077] During the melt polymerization process, the total amount of branched Friesian rearrangement can be adjusted by changing the temperature and / or the reaction time. This is because the by-products formed at high temperatures include the Friesian rearrangement of carbonate units along the growing polymer chain. The Friesian rearrangeme...

Abstract

A laser weldable composition made from a process of melt blending a combination of a partially crystalline thermoplastic polyester component such as poly(butylene terephthalate), an amorphous thermoplastic polycarbonate having a Fries rearrangement of greater than 150 to 10,000 ppm, and a filler such as glass fiber. The laser weldable composition has a polycarbonate aryl hydroxy end-group content of at least 300 ppm and provides improved near infrared transmission at 960 nanometers. A method welding components made from the weldable composition and welded articles made therefrom are also disclosed.

Description

Technical field [0001] The present disclosure relates to thermoplastic compositions, especially laser weldable thermoplastic compositions, preparation methods and products thereof. Background technique [0002] Thermoplastic compositions are used to make a variety of products, including laser welded products. Laser welding of two polymer parts by transmission welding requires that one of the polymer parts is basically transparent to the laser for transmitting it to the welding interface, while the other part absorbs a large amount of laser light, thereby producing a The heat of welding at the interface of the part. External pressure is applied to ensure uninterrupted contact between the surfaces of the components, and heat conduction between the components causes the polymer in the absorption component and the transmission component to melt, thereby providing welding at the interface. [0003] Near infrared (NIR) wavelength lasers are used for welding. The level of NIR transmiss...
