  • Patent number: 4921929
    Abstract: Isophthalic acid is commonly utilized as a comonomer in the preparation of copolyester resins which are utilized as solution adhesives. Unfortunately, solutions of such resins frequently become hazy due to the presence of cyclic oligomers. This invention is based upon the unexpected discovery that the presence of protonic acids during the synthesis of the copolyester resins containing isophthalic acid utilizing conventional metallic catalysts results in solutions of the resins in organic solvents being virtually haze free.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: March 28, 1989
    Date of Patent: May 1, 1990
    Assignee: The Goodyear Tire & Rubber Company
    Inventors: John R. Wilson, Marian M. Rousek, Fred L. Massey
