The present invention relates to a polyester resin. The polyester resin contains a particular content of diol moieties, derived from isosorbide and diethylene glycol, and thus can provide a resin molded product exhibiting high transparency in spite of a large wall thickness thereof.

The present invention relates to the use of polyesters with inherent flame retardancy as or in adhesives, sealants and coatings, to polyesters with inherent flame retardancy and to processes for production thereof.

The invention relates to a method for producing an EBM bottle with 0.90 to 1.5 dL/g from a bottle-grade PET post-consumer recycling flake, i.e., a recycled, post-consumer PET with a viscosity of 0.65 to 0.84 dL/g, using extrusion processes, solid state polycondensation processes, and a blowing process.

Provided is a tape including a composition having a copolyester including polymeric units derived from ethylene glycol and terephthalic acid or a diester thereof and >0.50 and <5.00 wt % of polymeric units with regard to the total weight of the polyester derived from an oligomeric dihydroxy compound having a number average molecular weight of >500 g/mol and <5000 g/mol. Such tape has an improved tensile-impact strength and a reduced proneness to splitting during weaving.

The present invention relates to a polyethylene terephthalate (PET) composition suitable for manufacturing heat resistant and/or microwaveable containers comprising at least one dicarboxylic acid; at least one diol; at least one nucleating agent; at least one or more crystallization suppressing agents; at least one or more additives; wherein the composition is characterized by at least one of the following properties: Intrinsic Viscosity>0.56 dL/g; Glass transition temperature (Tg)<60° C. and Crystallization exothermic peak temperature (Tch)<60° C.

This polyethylene furanoate has an intrinsic viscosity of 0.95 - 1.50 dl/g. Said intrinsic viscosity is measured (the Huggins constant is defined as 0.32) at 30° C. by using an Ubbelohde viscometer, after dissolving 0.25 g of the polyethylene furanoate in 50 ml of a solvent mixture of phenol/1,1,2,2-tetrachloroethane = 50/50 (weight ratio).

The present invention is directed to polyester powders suitable for use in 3D printing processes, methods of using such polyester powders in 3D printing processes, and processes for the manufacturing thereof. The polyester powders prepared in accordance with the present invention are easily recycled after such polyester powders have been subjected to 3D printing conditions. In addition, the present invention is directed to recycling processes that recondition waste polyester powders into polyester powders suitable for 3D printing.
