Abstract
Abstract Novel low-molecular weight polyesters consisting essentially of chain members of the formula ##STR1## wherein X is at least one member selected from the group consisting of ##STR2## and R is a bifunctional aliphatic hydrocarbon or a bifunctional hydrocarbon containing at least one aromatic or cycloaliphatic ring having an inherent viscosity of 0.08 to 0.35 dl/g measured at 30° C. on a 100 ml solution of 0.5 g of polyester in a solvent of 60% by weight of phenol and 40% by weight of 1,1,2,2-tetrachloroethane useful for further polymerization with amines, amides, imides and a novel method of preparing the same.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 15
Claim 1
Independent Claim
100 words
A low molecular weight polyester consisting essentially of chain members of the formula ##STR8## wherein X is at least one member of the group consisting of ##STR9## Y is ##STR10## and R is selected from the group consisting of a bifunctional aliphatic hydrocarbon optionally containing at least one cycloaliphatic ring and a bifunctional hydrocarbon containing at least one aromatic ring, said polyester having an inherent viscosity of 0.08 to 0.35 dl/g measured at 30° C. on a 100 ml solution of 0.5 g of polyester in a solvent of 60% by weight of phenol and 40% by weight of 1,1,2,2-tetrachloroethane.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
100 words
A low molecular weight polyester consisting essentially of chain members of the formula ##STR8## wherein X is at least one member of the group consisting of ##STR9## Y is ##STR10## and R is selected from the group consisting of a bifunctional aliphatic hydrocarbon optionally containing at least one cycloaliphatic ring and a bifunctional hydrocarbon containing at least one aromatic ring, said polyester having an inherent viscosity of 0.08 to 0.35 dl/g measured at 30° C. on a 100 ml solution of 0.5 g of polyester in a solvent of 60% by weight of phenol and 40% by weight of 1,1,2,2-tetrachloroethane.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
26 words
A polyester of claim 1 wherein X is a mixture of 30 to 70% by weight of ##STR11## and 70 to 30% by weight of ##STR12##
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
9 words
A polyester of claim 1 wherein R is ##STR13##
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
9 words
A polyester of claim 1 wherein R is ##STR14##
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
9 words
A polyester of claim 2 wherein R is ##STR15##
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
9 words
A polyester of claim 2 wherein R is ##STR16##
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
14 words
A polyester of claim 1 wherein the inherent viscosity is 0.1 to 0.25 dl/g.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim
71 words
A process for the preparation of a polyester of claim 1 comprising forming a fine dispersion of an aqueous phase of the desired alkali metal diphenolate and a phase transfer catalyst in water in the optional presence of an organic solvent as solubilizer in an organic phase containing the dicarboxylic acid halide while maintaining an excess of the dicarboxylic acid halide from the beginning for the greatest part of the reaction.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim
15 words
The process of claim 8 wherein the organic phase also contains a phase transfer catalyst.
Claim 11
Dependent Claim
35 words
The process of claim 8 wherein the aqueous phase is added continuously or successively batchwise to the intensely stirred organic phase and continuing the stirring after completion of the addition for a post reaction period.
Claim 12
Dependent Claim
20 words
The process of claim 10 wherein the aqueous phase is added slowly to ensure immediate dispersion in the organic phase.
Claim 13
Dependent Claim
14 words
The process of claim 10 wherein the addition is over 1 to 15 minutes.
Claim 14
Dependent Claim
42 words
The process of claim 8 wherein the dispersion of the aqueous phase with a deficiency of the alkali metal diphenolate in the organic phase is successively passed through at least two members of the group consisting of dispersion means and static mixers.
Claim 15
Dependent Claim
40 words
The process of claim 8 wherein the organic phase is passed successively through a series of members selected from the group consisting of dispersions means and static mixers while continuously adding the aqueous phase at a plurality of successive points.
