Abstract
Abstract An inorganic fiber-reinforced polyester resin composition having an improved mold-release property comprises 5% to 60% by weight of inorganic fibers, 0.01% to 2% by weight of at least one esters of pentaerythritol with saturated aliphatic monocarboxylic acids having 10 to 30 carbon atoms, and a balance of polyethylene terephthalate resin.
