A polycarbonate resin obtainable by reaction of a carbonic acid ester-forming compound with bisphenols consisting essentially of 9,9-bis(4-hydroxy-3-methylphenyl) fluorene and a bisphenol compound(s) having a polysiloxane skeleton, an intrinsic viscosity of said polycarbonate resin being 0.2 to 2.0 dl/g.

Polycarbonate resin

A branched polycarbonate resin having a viscosity average molecular weight (Mv) of 15,000 to 45,000, number of dichloromethane insoluble gel like particle with a particle diameter more than 50 &mgr;m being 10 or below per 100 g of the resin, obtained by reacting bisphenol, trihydric or above phenol as branching agent, monohydric phenol as molecular weight modifier and phosgene in the presence of both an alkali aqueous solution and organic solvent to polymerize and a process for producing the same.
