POLYESTER-POLYCARBONATE COPOLYMER AND METHOD FOR PRODUCING SAME

Polycarbonate block copolymers are provided, which have: (A) a polyester block of chemical formula 1; and (B) a polycarbonate block derived from a dihydric phenol of chemical formula 3 compound and phosgene. The copolymers may be prepared by (1) polymerizing ester oligomers to form a compound of chemical formula 1; and (2) copolymerizing the ester oligomer obtained in (1) with a polycarbonate oligomer prepared from a dihydric phenol compound of chemical formula 3 and phosgene, in the presence of a polymerization catalyst. The block copolymer may have a viscosity average molecular weight (Mv) of 10,000 to 200,000. The thermoplastic copolymer resins have excellent heat resistance, transparency, impact strength, and fluidity, and thus can be usefully applied in various products, including office devices, electric/electronic products, and automotive interior/exterior parts;
