Abstract From the Canadian patent

This invention relates to polyethylene terephthalate and copolymers thereof having high clarity and process for making the same. The invention provides a process for making PET using protonic acid catalysts which result in a polymer having a level of haze which is lower than has heretofore been attainable, using conventional metallic catalysts. Further the polyesters so produced have a lower melt temperature which improves the processability.
