    Abstract: A method for the continuous multi-stage manufacture of an end-capped polycarbonate includes, i) preparing a monomer mixture in a monomer mixing stage by mixing a bisphenol, a diaryl carbonate and optionally a transesterification catalyst in at least one monomer mixing device, ii) preparing a carbonate oligomer in an oligomerisation stage by reacting the monomer mixture in at least one oligomerisation reactor, and iii) preparing the polycarbonate in a polymerisation stage by further reacting the carbonate oligomer of the oligomerisation stage in at least one polymerisation reactor, in which an end-capping agent different from phenol and having a single phenolic hydroxy group is added to the monomer mixture in the monomer mixing stage and/or to at least one oligomerisation reactor in the oligomerisation stage.

    Abstract: A method of preparing a polycarbonate composition in a polymerization system that includes a monomer mixing unit, an oligomerization section, and a polymerization section. The method includes melt polymerizing a dihydroxy compound with a diaryl carbonate compound in the presence of a quaternary phosphonium catalyst to produce the polycarbonate composition having a phosphorus-containing byproduct of at least one of the quaternary phosphonium catalyst or of the diaryl carbonate compound. The method further includes recycling the phosphorus-containing byproduct into the monomer mixing unit of the polymerization system and removing the polycarbonate composition from the polymerization system. The recycle stream has a phosphorus concentration of greater than or equal to 40 parts per million by weight.
