Abstract: A polyester aqueous dispersion having excellent properties in waterproof, weatherproof, processibility and adhesion, which provides a large allowance for controlling liquid physical properties by post treatment and is advantageous in making dry powders from the dispersion, and an efficient method for preparing the aqueous dispersion at low costs in a simple manner. The polyester aqueous dispersion comprising (i) a water-insoluble polyester and (ii) a polyester containing a sulfonate group bound to a polymer in a concentration of 0.1 to 1.5 mmol equivalents when calculated as —SO3− group per gram of the polymer, and method for preparing a polyester aqueous dispersion comprises a step of melt-kneading a resin composition comprising the water-insoluble polyester (i) and polyester (ii) and a step of phase inversion of adding water or a basic aqueous solution to the molten kneaded mixture thereby to shift the resin composition into the aqueous dispersion.

Abstract: A bottle molded from a polyester composition comprising 97 to 99.99% by weight of a polyester and 3 to 0.01% by weight of a polyester elastomer, which bottle exhibits dimensional change ratios of not greater than 5% measured in the height direction of the bottle and also not greater than 5% measured in the wall part diameter direction of the bottle and has an overturning angle of at least 10.degree., when the bottle was subjected to a hot bath test in which the bottle is filled with a beverage containing 2.5 gas volume carbon dioxide at 23.degree. C., stoppered and immersed in sealed condition in a hot bath heated at 70.degree. C. Thus, the bottle retains self-standing property without deformation even after it is filled with a carbonated beverage and subjected to heat sterilization.

Abstract: The refillable polyester bottle of the invention has a mean crystallinity of 32 to 70% at the bottle body, a methanol adsorption of 1,500 ppm or less at the same portion and a paraxylene adsorption of 300 ppm or less at the same portion. Therefore, the bottle is excellent in non-adsorptivity and heat resistance. According to the method of removing adsorbates on a polyester bottle of the invention, the adsorbates can be rapidly desorbed by holding the bottle in air of 40 to 150.degree. C. or bringing the bottle into contact with water or water vapor heated at 40 to 150.degree. C.

Abstract: A polycarbonate lubricating oil composition which is resistant to decomposition of the polycarbonate and the generation of carbon dioxide gas. The lubricating oil composition contains a polycarbonate lubricant, at least one compound selected from the group of epoxy compound, phenol compound, sulfur compound and amine compound, and optionally a triester phosphite or a triester phosphate compound as inhibitors to the generation of carbon dioxide gas. The lubricating oil composition are stable, have excellent lubricating properties, cleaning properties, and electrical insulating properties, and their viscosity at low temperature can readily be lowered.
