The present invention relates to a process of preparing polycarbonate, more specifically to a process of preparing polycarbonates by solid state polymerization using microwave radiation, which comprises steps of preparing polycarbonate prepolymer having a certain range of viscosity average molecular weight; converting said polycarbonate prepolymer into crystalline particles having a certain degree of crystallinity; and producing polycarbonates by solid state polymerization of said crystalline particles by applying microwave radiation, thus resulting in production of high quality polycarbonates with high molecular weight within short time.

The present invention relates to a process of preparing polycarbonates and more particularly, to the process of preparing polycarbonates through a melt polymerization reaction of dihydroxyaryl compounds with diarylcarbonate, wherein said melt polymerization is performed in the presence of a mixed catalyst composed of an oxygen (O) or sulfur (S) containing compound having lone-pair electrons and an alkali metal or alkaline earth metal salt in an appropriate ratio at a reduced temperature by accelerating a reaction rate to obtain high quality polycarbonates with higher than 15,000 g/mole of a viscosity average molecular weight and improved color.
