  • Patent number: 4403052
    Abstract: A flame retarded, injection moldable, saturated, linear polyester composition contains red phosphorus as flame retardant and a metal iodide as phosphine suppressing agent. The metal is one of the groups 1a and 2b of the periodic table of elements with potassium iodide being the most preferred.The phosphine evolution of a poly(ethylene terephthalate) molding composition containing 4% red phosphorus as flame retardant is reduced to 0.3 ppm at the die and to 1.0 ppm in storage by the addition of 0.6% of potassium iodide.

  • Patent number: 4390649
    Abstract: A molding composition of a terephthalate polyester such as PET, a plasticizing material and a crystal nucleating agent. The nucleating agent is a powdered metal hydroxide such as aluminum hydroxide, which raises the T.sub.cc of the composition and permits reduced cycling time and enables higher molecular weight polymer to be used in the molding process.
