A polyester polymer is polymerized from an alcohol component including a diol and a polyol and an acid component including terephthalic acid and isophthalic acid, with the terephthalic acid and isophthalic acid present in a desired molar ratio. The polyester polymer also includes carboxylic acid functional groups, a weight average molecular weight (MW) of at least 5000 Daltons (Da), and an acid value (AV) of 40 to 65. The polyester polymer may be formulated into a water-based coating composition for substrates such as articles of cookware to form a coating that is highly heat resistant and flexible while also providing non-stick properties with good release.

A polyester resin that exhibits heat resistance and transparency by including at least dispiro[5.1.5.1]tetradecane-7,14-diol as a diol component, and a preparation method of this polyester resin are disclosed. The polyester resin is obtained by copolymerization of two or more glycols in addition to dispiro[5.1.5.1]tetradecane-7,14-diol and dicarboxylic acid component, which may include terephthalic acid. The diol component may include 1,4-cyclohexanedimethanol in a range from 30 to 50 mol % based on 100 mol % of the dicarboxylic acid and dispiro[5.1.5.1]tetradecane-7,14-diol in a range from 5 to 60 mol % based on 100 mol % of the dicarboxylic acid moiety and ethylene glycol.

A preparation method of a fluoropolymer processing aid. The preparation method comprises the following steps: simultaneously adding ε-caprolactone and a fluoropolymer elastomer into a reactor, and heating to completely dissolve the fluoropolymer elastomer; and then cooling, adding polyol, mixing thoroughly, and adding an organotin catalyst to carry out a polymerization reaction; and after the reaction is finished, carrying out cooling, pulverizing or spray granulation so as to obtain the fluoropolymer processing aid. The processing aid prepared by using the method can reduce the extrusion pressure of a polymer during extrusion, improve the processing efficiency, improve the phenomena of melt rupture and “sharkskin” during polymer extrusion, and effectively enhance the surface quality of a product. Compared with the prior art, the processing aid of the invention has the characteristics of uniform dispersed particle size during polymer processing, no coking at a die head during long-time polymer extrusion processing, etc.

The present disclosure discloses a butenediol-based polyester elastomer and a method for preparing same. In the present disclosure, 1,4-butenediol containing high-stability double-bond is used to replace itaconic acid, and a series of butenediol-based polyester elastomers with high molecular weight and narrow distribution are synthesized, which have high relative molecular weight and narrow relative molecular weight distribution. The crosslinking in subsequent processing is more controllable, and the dosage of a vulcanizing agent is equivalent to that of traditional rubber.
