More Information
Summary:Polyester compositions are disclosed that include a melt-phase polyethylene terephthalate polyester having incorporated therein residues of a monomer having two or more fused aromatic rings, and that also include titanium. Also disclosed are articles that include the disclosed polyester compositions, and processes for producing such polyester compositions, that include the steps of forming a mixture comprising ethylene glycol, at least one acid chosen from terephthalic acid and derivatives of terephthalic acid, and a monomer having two or more fused aromatic rings; and reacting the mixture in the presence of titanium to obtain the melt-phase polyethylene terephthalate polyester.
