Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A container comprising a polyester composition with enhanced mechanical properties is provided. The polyester composition comprises a polyester and a creep control agent. In particular embodiments, the polyester composition comprises a polyester, a creep control agent, and a gas barrier enhancing additive. In particular embodiments, the creep control agents are molecules or polymers comprising dianhydrides, bis-lactams, bis-oxazoles, and epoxides.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

We claim: 1. A method for enhancing the mechanical properties of a polyester container, the method comprising: blending a polyester with at least one creep control agent and at least one gas barrier enhancing additive to form a polyester composition, and forming the polyester composition into a polyester container. 2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the at least one creep control agent comprises a compound having the following chemical structure: 3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the at least one creep control agent comprises a compound having the following chemical structure: 4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the at least one creep control agent comprises a compound having the following chemical structure: 5. The method of claim 1 , wherein the at least one creep control agent comprises a compound having the following chemical structure: 6. The method of claim 1 , wherein the at least one creep control agent comprises a compound having the following chemical structure: 7. The method of claim 1 , wherein the at least one creep control agent comprises a compound having the following chemical structure: 8. The method of claim 1 , wherein the at least one creep control agent comprises a compound having the following chemical structure: 9. The method of claim 1 , wherein the at least one creep control agent comprises a compound having the following chemical structure: 10. The method of claim 1 , wherein the at least one creep control agent comprises a compound having the following chemical structure: 11. The method of claim 1 , wherein the at least one creep control agent comprises a compound having the following chemical structure: 12. The method of claim 1 , wherein the at least one creep control agent comprises a compound having the following chemical structure: 13. The method of claim 1 , wherein the at least one gas barrier enhancing additive comprises a compound having the following chemical structure: 14. The method of claim 1 , wherein the at least one gas barrier enhancing additive comprises a compound having the following chemical structure: 15. The method of claim 1 , wherein the at least one gas barrier enhancing additive comprises a compound having the following chemical structure: 16. The method of claim 1 , wherein the at least one gas barrier enhancing additive comprises a compound having the following chemical structure: 17. The method of claim 1 , wherein the at least one gas barrier enhancing additive comprises a compound having the following chemical structure: 18. The method of claim 1 , wherein the at least one gas barrier enhancing additive comprises a compound having the following chemical structure: 19. The method of claim 1 , wherein the at least one gas barrier enhancing additive comprises a compound having the following chemical structure:
