Title: Process for manufacturing polyester copolymers containing terephthalate and naphthalate units
Inventor: BURKETT EUGENE JOHN
IPC: C08G63/78
Filed: 1995-12-12
Abstract: This invention is a process for producing polyester copolymers, which employs an acid-based and an ester-based process.  The ester-based process is used to manufacture a low molecular weight naphthalate-based polymer, and the acid-based process is used to manufacture phthalate-based oligomers.  The low molecular weight naphthalate-based polymer is combined with the phthalate-based oligomers, or the raw materials used to form the phthalate-based oligomers, to form a random polyester copolymer.  Specifically, the process may be used to manufacture, in an ester-based process, a low molecular weight polyethylene naphthalate  polymer, which is then combined with polyethylene terephthalate oligomers produced in an acid-based process, and the acid-based process is then used to continue the polymerization reaction which results in the production of a random polyethylene terephthalate/naphthalate copolymer.
