Abstract
Abstract A process for the production of high molecular linear polyesters by polycondensing a glycol with terephthalic acid or a terephthalic acid ester in the presence of a polycondensation catalyst. The condensation catalyst is a titanium-dioxide containing 0.01 to 20% by weight of a metal compound, preferably germanium dioxide and antimonium oxide is used as a metal compound. The catalyst can be prepared by calcinating titanium dioxide together with the metal compound.
