Patent ID: 8158747

Claim:
A method of manufacturing a molded article by melting and molding a granule of a polycarbonate resin at a temperature of 280 to 380° C., wherein the granule satisfies the following conditions (a) and (b): (a) when 100 parts by weight of the granule is cleaned with 100 parts by weight of a 1N nitric acid aqueous solution, the amount of an Fe compound eluted into the cleaning liquid of the 1N nitric acid aqueous solution is 1 to 100 ppb in terms of an Fe atom based on the granule; and (b) when 100 parts by weight of the granule is cleaned with 100 parts by weight of MeOH, the total amount of oleic amide, erucic amide and stearic amide eluted into the cleaning liquid of MeOH is 1 to 50 ppb based on the granule.
