Abstract:
A method for reducing outgassing of a polyester composed of repeat units derived from 1,4-butanediol is melt blending the polyester with 0.2 to 2 weight percent water, based on the weight of the polyester. In addition to water, the polyester can also be blended with 0.01 to 0.5 weight percent of a quencher. The method results in formation of a polyester composition which exhibits reduced outgassing, and is suitable for molding into articles, for example an automotive headlight reflector or bezel.

Claim (Index 4):
The method of  claim 1 , wherein the polyester mixture excludes quenchers, wherein the quenchers are selected from the group consisting of phosphorous compounds, boric acid, aliphatic or aromatic carboxylic acids, carboxylic acid anhydrides, polyols, epoxies, or a combination thereof.
