Abstract
According to the present invention there are obtained improved ignition resistant carbonate polymer blends having unexpectedly better combinations of toughness, ignition resistance, processability and stability. In particular the blend comprises a major amount of carbonate polymer, a minor amount of a rubber-modified monovinylidene aromatic copolymer, and an optional rubbery core/shell graft copolymer impact modifier. As ignition resistance additives the blends contain a metal salt of an aromatic sulfur compound, a buffering aromatic sulfur compound, an organophosphorus compound, and a tetrafluoroethylene polymer.
