Abstract

Abstract A polyester resin composition having an excellent molding mobility and crystallizing property, comprises (A) at least one thermoplastic polyester resin selected from polyethylene terephthalate resins and polybutylene terephthalate resins; (B) a polycaprolactone having a. number average molecular weight of from 200 to 20,000 in an amount of 0.1 to 30 parts by weight per 100 parts by weight of the polyester resin, in which polycaprolactone molecules, at least a portion of the terminal radicals thereof, may be modified to be non-reactive, and, optionally, (C) at least one additive selected from filler, crystal nucleating agents, and specific phosphorous compounds which may be in combination with a specific epoxy compound, the polyester resin composition being useful for producing a molded product having an excellent dimensional stability and mechanical strength.
