Abstract
Disclosed are copolyesters which are capable of being extrusion blow molded into a variety of shapes such as, for example, bottles, films or the like. The copolyesters are derived from an acid component comprising terephthalic acid and 1,12-dodecanedioic acid, and a glycol component comprising 1,4-cyclohexanedimethanol.

Copolyester derived from
- (A) an acid component comprising about 10-90 mole % terephthalic acid and about 90-10 mole % 1,12-dodecanedioic acid, and
- (B) a glycol component comprising at least 60 mole % 1,4-cyclohexanedimethanol,
- said copolyester having an inherent viscosity of about 0.5 to about 1.8 as determined at 23.degree. C. using 0.5 gram of polymer per 100 ml. of a solvent consisting of a 60/40 mixture of phenol/tetrachloroethane, and said mole % being based on 100 mole % acid and 100 mole % glycol.
