  • Patent number: 6713595
    Abstract: The present invention provides a copolyester resin composition which has good physical properties, biodegradability and processability and a process for preparing and/or producing the same. To improve the biodegradability and physical properties of the copolyester, the present invention applied multi-stage reaction step, and copolyester resin having number average molecular weight of from 30,000 to 70,000, weight average molecular weight of from 100,000 to 600,000, melting point of from 55° C. to 120° C., and melt index of from 0.1 to 30 g/10 minute (190° C., 2,160 g) is obtained. The processability and physical properties of the copolyester resin of the present invention has been greatly enhanced by incorporating (i) an “aromatic-aliphatic prepolymers” having number average molecular weight of from 300 to 30,000 and the contiguous repeating unit of aromatic group in the dicarboxylic acid position of “aromatic-aliphatic prepolymers” is less than 5.

  • Patent number: 6280350
    Abstract: A golf tee on which a golf ball is positioned. The golf tee 100 has a head 125 having a golf ball positioning portion 115. A shaft 135 is connected to the head. The shaft 135 is tapered from the head 125 towards one end thereof and has a quadrangular cross-section. A recessed portion 130 is formed in the golf ball positioning portion 115 of the head portion. The central line 150 of the recessed portion is substantially identical with the central line of the quadrangular surface of the shaft.

  • Patent number: 6063895
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a high molecular weighted biodegradable polyester resin which can be used in medical, agricultural and fishery packaging materials by enhancing the low heat-resistance of the general aliphatic polyester and the preparing method for them. The present invention provides a polyester resin which is prepared by condense-polymerization after one or a plurality of condensation, esterification and ester-exchange reaction with main ingredients of (1) an aliphatic (including circular aliphatic) dicarboxylic acid (or an acid anhydride thereof) including an adipic acid, (2) an aliphatic (including circular aliphatic) glycol at least selected from one of 1,4-butanediol and ethyleneglycol with a little of a monomer including one or a plurality of an amine radical from 0.
