Reaction Steps

77 g (0.05 equivalent) of an acid polyester prepared, by the melt process, from 21 mols of succinic anhydride and 20 mols of butanediol and 35 g (0.05 equivalent) of an acid polyester prepared, by the melt process, from 8 mols of adipic acid and 7 mols of neopentylglycol are warmed to 120° C. and mixed well with 11.0 g (0.1 equivalent) of triglycidyl isocyanurate and the mixture is poured into Anticorodal moulds which have internal dimensions of 150×150×1 mm, have been treated with a silicone mould-release agent and have been pre-warmed to 140° C. After removing the air, the mixture is cured in vacuo for 16 hours at 140° C. Crystalline, soft and tough mouldings are obtained, on which the following characteristics are determined:
