International Classification:
C08L 67/02 C08G 63/183
US Classification:
524605, 528193
Abstract:
A polyester containing polymerized units of hydroquinone; 4,4′-biphenol; and hydroxybenzoic acid; terephthalic acid and optionally isophthalic acid. A method of forming a polyester including first acylating a mixture of hydroquinone; 4,4′-biphenol; terephthalic acid and optionally isophthalic acid; and hydroxybenzoic acid; and then polycondensing the resulting acylated mixture. The polyester is suitable for uses such as lighting where high whiteness, high reflectivity and high heat resistance are desirable.

Abstract:
The present invention relates to copolyamides comprising 4-(aminomethyl)benzoic acid (4-AMBa). The present invention also relates to polymer compositions comprising such copolyamides, as well as articles comprising the same and methods of using said articles to prepare windows, clear containers for cosmetic products packaging or glass frames & lenses. The present invention also relates to the use of the copolyamide, as such or in a composition of matter, for the manufacture of three-dimensional objects using an additive manufacturing system, for example an extrusion-based manufacturing system.
