Abstract

Abstract The present invention relates to polyester molding compositions from linear saturated polyesters, inert inorganic solid materials and 2,3-epoxy propanol esters of polyfunctional carboxylic acids of the formula WHICH MOLDING COMPOSITIONS MAY BE WORKED UP IN THE THERMOPLASTIC RANGE AND FROM WHICH MOLDED ARTICLES CAN BE MADE WHICH ARE FREE FROM FLASH-FORMATION.
