摘要:
Fluorescent poly(alkylene terephthalate) compositions are provided. The fluorescent poly(alkylene terephthalate) compositions contain fluorescent poly(alkylene terephthalate)s and are made from fluorescent compounds and poly(alkylene terephthalate) oligomers, or by polymerizing amine and acid monomers in the presence of fluorescent compounds.
摘要:
Disclosed are molded articles comprising a thermoplastic polymer composition comprising, consisting essentially of, or prepared from (a) about 30% to about 99 weight % based on the combination of (a) and (b) of a poly(ethylene terephthalate) homopolymer or copolymer; and (b) about 1 to about 70% weight % based on the combination of (a) and (b) of a poly(trimethylene terephthalate) homopolymer or copolymer. Specific embodiments include injection-molded preforms and blown bottles.
摘要:
Processes for making elastomeric polyether esters from polyesters and polyols are provided. The processes can offer a reduction in manufacturing cost, energy use and a lower environmental footprint than conventional processes, particularly when the processes utilize post-consumer polyesters as starting materials.
摘要:
The present invention relates to processes for manufacturing polyesters The processes can be used for manufacturing polyesters from post-consumer polyesters. The processes include contacting a post-consumer polyester with at least one diol, at elevated temperature in presence of a catalyst, effecting a transesterification reaction. Biologically-derived diols can be used.
摘要:
A bicomponent fiber wherein (a) the first component comprises from about 90 to 100 wt. % poly(trimethylene terephthalate) and (b) the second component is a polymer composition comprising (i) poly(trimethylene terephthalate) and (ii) polymer containing polyalkylene ether repeating units. Yarn, fiber, fabrics and carpets comprising the bicomponent fiber, as well as the process of making the bicomponent fiber, yarn, fabric, and carpet.
摘要:
Highly crimped, fully drawn bicomponent fibers, prepared by melt-spinning, followed by gas-flow quenching, heat treatment and high speed windup, are provided, as are fine-decitex and highly uniform polyester bicomponent fibers.
摘要:
The present invention provides a heat-sealable polyester composition having an amorphous processing window ranging from a Tg in the range of about 40° C. to about 70° C., to a Tcg in the range of about 70° C. to about 150° C. The composition preferably contains a mixture of poly(ethylene terephthalate) homopolymer or copolymer and poly(trimethylene terephthalate) homopolymer or copolymer, either as a physical blend or as a copolyester oligomer or polymer prepared from the respective monomers. The resulting composition is heat-sealable at low temperatures, retains barrier properties and is non-flavor-scalping.
