Production of thermally stabilized polyester

摘要

High molecular weight linear condensation polyesters are stabilized against deterioration by heat with a stabilizer comprising an N-epoxyalkyl imide of a dicarboxylic acid, having 5 to 20 carbon atoms in the imide molecule and composed of carbon, hydrogen, carbonyl and epoxy oxygen, and imide nitrogen atoms, said epoxy oxygen being linked to adjacent carbon atoms.
