摘要:
A UV-protected, laminated article obtained by a thermocompressive lamination process. The laminated article is characterized by reduced haze due to the use of a benzotriazine UV absorber. A process for making such a laminated article and a method for preventing or inhibiting haze from developing in a UV-protected laminated article during application of heat and pressure are also described.

In one aspect the present invention relates to a method of making an encapsulated electrically energized device, the method comprising: providing a first layer and a second layer each independently comprising a copolyester, providing the electrically energized between the first and second layer, thermocompressively fusing the first layer and the second layer to encapsulate the electrically energized device by applying pressure at a temperature sufficient to form the article, wherein the temperature at an interface between the first and second layers is equal to or greater than Tg of the first layer and the second layer, and wherein the polyester layers have a flow during encapsulation less than the flow that induces fractures in the electrically energized device. In one aspect the present invention relates to a method of making an encapsulated electrically energized device, the method comprising: providing a first layer and a second layer each independently comprising a copolyester, a polycarbonate, a polyacrylate, polycarbonate/polyester miscible blends, or mixtures thereof, providing the electrically energized between the first and second layer, thermocompressively fusing the first layer and the second layer to encapsulate the electrically energized device by applying pressure at a temperature, sufficient to form the article, to a perimeter of the surface of the first and second layers, wherein the perimeter does not overlap the electrically energized device, wherein the temperature at the interface of the first and second layers is equal to or greater than Tg of the first layer and the second layer, and wherein the polyester layers have a flow during encapsulation less than the flow that induces fractures in the electrically energized device.

Disclosed are laminated articles comprising a first polymer layer and a second polymer layer having an inclusion embedded between the layers, wherein at least one layer comprises a branching agent to improve dimensional stability during the lamination process. Disclosed are laminated articles comprising a first polymer layer and a second polymer layer having an inclusion embedded between the layers, wherein at least one layer comprises a copolyester comprising a branching agent to improve dimensional stability during the lamination process. Also disclosed are methods of laminating a first layer and a second layer with an inclusion between the layers to form a laminated article with an embedded inclusion, wherein at least one layer comprises a copolyester comprising a branching agent.

摘要:
comonomers have been shown to improve flammability characteristics of polyesters and copolyesters. Incorporation of sulfonate containing monomers such as 5-sodiosulfoisophthalic acid significantly decreases the heat release capacity of copolyesters. These comonomers also increase the formation of char as measured by thermogravimetric analysis. The decrease in the heat release capacity and increase in char formation indicates that these compositions may have reduced flammability and thus are useful for producing products have reduced flammability. In particular, it has also been demonstrated that incorporation of as little as 0.1 mole % 5-sodiosulfoisophthalic acid to a polyester or copolyester significantly increases the char formation independent of composition.

Thermoplastic compositions of polyester/polycarbonate blends have reduced yellowness and improved thermal and melt stability when the polyester is produced with a reduced level of a titanium-containing catalyst in an amount of from about 1 to about 30 ppm elemental titanium, with ppm based on the total weight of the polyester.
