Abstract

The present invention relates to a polyester resin composition capable of having an excellent shrinkage rate, being heat-shrunk at a low temperature, and improving adhesion properties, without impairing insulation properties in a state of heat-shrinkable films, and a method for preparing the same. The present polyester resin composition comprises: a copolymerized polyester resin including a dicarboxylic acid-derived residue including a residue derived from an aromatic dicarboxylic acid; and a diol-derived residue including a residue derived from 4-(hydroxymethyl)cyclohexyl methyl 4′-(hydroxymethyl)cyclohexane carboxylate, and a residue derived from 4,4-(oxybis(methylene)bis) cyclohexane methanol, an alkali metal compound, and an alkaline earth metal compound, wherein the alkali metal compound and the alkaline earth metal compound are contained in an amount that the content ratio of the alkali metal element/the alkaline earth metal element derived therefrom is 0.01 to 1.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. A method for preparing a polyester resin composition comprising:
reacting a dicarboxylic acid including an aromatic dicarboxylic acid with a diol including, based on 100 mol % of the dicarboxylic acid, 0.1 to 10 mol % of 4-(hydroxymethyl)cyclohexylmethyl 4′-(hydroxymethyl)cyclohexane carboxylate, 0.1 to 12 mol % of 4,4-(oxybis(methylene)bis)cyclohexane methanol, 0.1 to 15 mol % of a 1,4-cyclohexanedimethanol-derived residue, 2 to 15 mol % of a diethylene glycol-derived residue, and 48 to 97.7 mol % of an ethylene glycol-derived residue, thus performing esterification and polycondensation reactions,
wherein at least one step of the esterification and polycondensation reaction steps is performed in the presence of an alkali metal compound, and an alkaline earth metal compound,
wherein the alkali metal compound and the alkaline earth metal compound are used in amounts such that a weight ratio of the alkaline earth metal element to the alkali metal element is between 0.01 and 1.

2. The method for preparing a polyester resin composition according to claim 1 wherein the esterification reaction is performed at a reaction temperature of 230 to 265° C. and a pressure of 1.0 to 3.0 kg/cm 2 for 100 to 300 minutes after injecting the diol at a molar ratio of 1.2 to 3.0 with respect to the dicarboxylic acid.

3. The method for preparing a polyester resin composition according to claim 1 wherein the polycondensation reaction is performed in the presence of one or more additives selected from the group consisting of a catalyst, a stabilizer, and a coloring agent.

4. The method for preparing a polyester resin composition according to claim 1 wherein the polycondensation reaction is performed at a reaction temperature of 260 to 290° C. and a reduced pressure of 400 to 0.1 mmHg.
