Thin walled products having good scratch resistance are disclosed, as are processes for making such products (e.g. films, sheets, and thin walled articles). The product includes a thin layer formed from (A) a cross-linkable polycarbonate resin having endcaps derived from a monohydroxybenzophenone; and (B) if desired, a base polymeric resin. When exposed to ultraviolet light, crosslinking will occur in the layer with the cross-linkable polycarbonate resin, enhancing the scratch resistance properties of the thin layer and the overall product.

A carbonate-containing oligomer, a manufacturing method for a carbonate-containing oligomer and a crosslinked product are provided. The carbonate-containing oligomer includes a structure represented by formula (I), and formula (I) is defined as in the specification. The crosslinked product is obtained by mixing the carbonate-containing oligomer with a modified polyphenylene ether resin, and adding a peroxide to perform a curing reaction.

Provided is a polycarbonate-based resin having a ratio of an amine terminal to all terminal groups of 1.0 mol % or more.
