Abstract
A copolyester includes repeating units derived from an aliphatic glycol, terephthalic acid, and the monomer of formula (I): wherein n=2, 3 or 4; Z is C═O; comonomer (I) constitutes a proportion of the glycol fraction of the copolyester and is present in a range of from about 5 to about 15 mol % of the glycol fraction of the copolyester; wherein said copolyester is semi-crystalline. A process tor making the copolyester includes annealing a copolyester of formula (I) at 20-80° C. below the crystalline melting point (Tm) and above the glass transition temperature (Tg).
