Abstract
Among the thermoplastic group of polymers, polycarbonates (PC) have attracted a great deal of attention due to their ability to be easily worked upon and moldability. Figure 2.1 gives the general structure of PC. Their capability to resist temperature and impact makes them a common application material in housewares, laboratories, and industries. Therefore, any modification in their properties to suite specific requirements becomes interesting.
