Abstract

Melt processable, aromatic copolyesters containing 15 to 40 mole % of 4-oxybenzoyl moieties from 0.25 to less than 2.5 mole % of randomizing moieties, which are preferably 2-6 oxy naphthoyl moieties, the balance of moieties being equimolar proportions of moieties derived from hydroquinone and isophthalic acid. The preferred polymers are made by a dispersion polymerization process using as a dispersion aid a finely divided particulate material having at least 95% by weight of particles with at least one dimension less than 1 micron.
