Abstract: Provided is a polyester production process which provides the polyester with a suitable molecular weight capable of enduring various mold processings and which can inhibit the polymer from being colored due to side reactions in synthesis. The above polyester production process comprises: an esterification step of carrying out an esterification reaction of ethylene glycol and 2,5-furandicarboxylic acid to form an oligomer and a condensation polymerization step of carrying out a condensation polymerization reaction of the oligomer to produce polyester, wherein the esterification reaction is carried out at 200 to 250° C.

Abstract: Polybutylene terephthalate having good heat stability and excellent hydrolysis resistance is continuously produced in a series of a first reactor for reacting an aromatic dicarboxylic acid comprising terephthalic acid as a main ingredient or a derivative thereof with a glycol comprising 1,4-butanediol as a main ingredient, thereby producing an oligomer with an average degree of polymerization of 2.2 to 5, a second reactor for polycondensating the oligomer from the first reactor, thereby preparing a low polymerization product with an average degree of polymerization of 25 to 40, and a third reactor for further polycondensating the low polymerization product from the second reactor, thereby producing a high molecular weight polyester with an average degree of polymerization of 70 to 130, or followed by a fourth reactor for further polycondensing the polyester from the third reactor to an average degree of polymerization of 150 to 200, thereby producing a high molecular weight polyester.
