<p>This invention relates to a polyester/zeolite admixture having an excellent gas barrier property and an improved flavor retaining property, and clarity. More particularly, the present invention relates to a polyester/zeolite admixture wherein the zeolite is present in a critical amount of 100 parts per million (ppm) to 1,000 ppm. The present inventors have determined that addition of small- or medium-pore zeolites in a critical amount to a polyester reduces the concentration of acetaldehyde in the polyester without producing haze and thus improves the storage property, flavor retaining property, and fragrance retaining property of containers made from such polyester.</p> |
