Abstract
An electret is a dielectric material exhibiting a quasi‐permanent electric charge. The aim of this work is to give access to PC electret materials with a distinctly improved electret performance. In this context, the charge storage capabilities of corona charged films of several PC grades were investigated by isothermal potential decay measurements at 90 °C. The most promising PC grade was further improved by a new class of bisimide additives. The best additive at the most efficient concentration in combination with a physical aging step yielded excellent PC electrets maintaining almost their complete applied charge even at 90 °C.

## Abstract Next to the intended increase of the impact toughness, impact modification of polycarbonate generally results in an unwanted decrease in yield stress and time‐to‐failure under constant stress. It is demonstrated that this loss in strength can be fully compensated for by an annealing tre
