Abstract
A polyester resin composition is produced by melt-kneading a mixture comprising a polyamide resin and a polyester resin, and a tricarboxylic acid compound. The polyamide resin is a polymerization product of a diamine component containing 70 mol % or more of m-xylylenediamine and a dicarboxylic acid component containing 70 mol % or more of adipic acid. The polyester resin is a polymerization product of a dicarboxylic acid component containing 70 mol % or more of an aromatic dicarboxylic acid and a diol component containing 70 mol % or more of an aliphatic diol. The incorporation of a tricarboxylic acid compound such as aromatic tricarboxylic acids and their anhydrides improves transparency and whitening resistance at moisture absorbing of films, sheets and thin-wall hollow containers without deteriorating their gas barrier properties.
