Abstract

Abstract A transparent, heat resistant polyester composition having improved mechanical strength is provided, which comprises (A) 20 to 80% by weight of a polyalkylene terephthalate predominantly comprising ethylene terephthalate and having an intrinsic viscosity of from 0.6 to 1.2 dl/g, and (B) 20 to 80% by weight of a bisphenol-A polycarbonate having an intrinsic viscosity of from 0.6 to 1.2 dl/g, the composition having an intrinsic viscosity of from 0.6 to 1.2 dl/g and a single glass transition temperature of from 80 DEG to 130 DEG C. A polyester laminate may be molded as comprising a layer of the polyester composition and a layer of alkylene terephthalate. The molded polyester laminate can take any form including films and containers.
