Abstract

A biaxially oriented polyester film which has excellent resistances to dry heat deterioration and wet heat deterioration, which can withstand the use in an atmosphere of relatively high moisture content, and which is useful, for example, as an electrical insulating film, a film for transparent electrode, a film for absorption of electromagnetic wave (e.g. a film used as an inspection window of microwave oven) and a reflection film. This polyester contains ethylene-2,6-naphthalenedicarboxylate as the main recurring unit.! 99.5 to 95 mole % of ethylene-2,6-naphthalenedicarboxylate and 0.5 to 5 mole % of ethylene-2,7-naphthalenedicarboxylate and has a density of 1.355 to 1.370 g/cm.sup.3 and an intrinsic viscosity of 0.62 to 0.90. The polyester film has an amount of terminal carboxyl in the polyester of 40 eg/10.sup.6 g or less and an amount of oligomers of 2.0 mg/m.sup.2 film or less.
