An ovenware is a molded article of a resin composition containing a liquid crystalline polyester resin, an inorganic filler, and a fatty acid compound, in which, when the ovenware is heated at 250 C., a total generated concentration of notional and decanal derived from the fatty acid compound is 1 vol ppb or less.

A phosphorus (P) containing oligomer, a polyester resin having excellent flame retardancy and a high degree of polymerization by including a constitutional unit derived from the phosphorus containing oligomer, a thermoplastic resin composition including the polyester resin, and a molded article using the thermoplastic resin composition are provided.

A coating composition comprising a resinous binder and up to 10 percent by weight of a phosphatized polyester. The compositions are useful for coating containers of all sorts such as food and beverage containers, and the phosphatized polyester provides enhanced adhesion of the coating to the container substrate. The compositions can be formulated to be substantially free of bisphenol A (BPA) and bisphenol A diglycidyl ether (BADGE).

A process for the production of a flame-retardant polymer is disclosed. The process includes reacting a polyol, for example glycerol, with an organophosphorus monochloride material to produce a phosphorus-functionalized polyol derivative. The process further includes reacting the phosphorus-functionalized polyol derivative with a polycarboxylic acid to form the flame-retardant polymer, wherein phosphorus is chemically bound to a polymer chain of the flame-retardant polymer.

An object of the present invention is to provide a method for producing a polyester resin composition with less coloring and less decrease in molecular weight even after several times of recycling with used polyester resins produced with at least one type of polymerization catalyst selected from the group consisting of an antimony compound, a titanium compound, and a germanium compound. The present invention contains a method for producing the polyester resin composition (C) comprising a step of mixing a polyester resin (A) collected for recycling and a polyester resin (B) containing an aluminum compound and a phosphorous compound, wherein the polyester resin (A) satisfies the following (1) to (3): (1) the polyester resin (A) comprises at least one element selected from the group consisting of antimony element, titanium element, and germanium element, (2) the polyester resin (A) comprises at least one of the antimony element, the titanium element, and the germanium element at a total content of from 2 to 500 ppm by mass, and (3) the polyester resin (A) has an intrinsic viscosity of from 0.5 to 0.8 dl/g.
