The invention relates to carbon fiber-containing polycarbonate compositions, the flowability of which is significantly improved by adding epoxidized triacylglycerols, for example as a constituent of epoxidized soy bean oil. In addition to the very high flowability, the compositions according to the invention have a high rigidity.

The present invention relates to polycarbonate compositions and molded articles made therefrom. The polycarbonate composition comprises: A) 70-95 wt.% of aromatic polycarbonate, B) 4-26 wt.% of mineral fdler, C) 0.1- 4 wt.% of ester-modified wax, D) 0.1-0.6 wt.% of a mold release agent, E) 0.05-0.3 wt.% of antioxidant, F) 0 - 0.3 wt.% ofneutralizer, and G) 0-2 wt.% of coloring agent, wherein the amount of each component is based on the total weight of the polycarbonate composition. The molded articles made from the polycarbonate composition according to this invention show enhanced impact strength, tensile elongation at break and surface gloss.
