Abstract

In the production method of the present invention, a copolyester of intended sublimable diol proportion is produced by the reaction of a dicarboxylic acid and/or an ester-forming derivative thereof with a sublimable diol and a non-sublimable diol with an increased conversion of the sublimable diol. Since the escape of the sublimable diol is effectively prevented, the process solves the problem of clogging pressure-reduced pipes, etc. of an apparatus for polyester resin production.
