Abstract

The invention relates to binder fibers made from copolyester, the copolyesters themselves and catalysts and processes for producing the copolyesters. More particularly, the invention relates to copolyesters formed from 1,4-cyclohexanedimethanol, ethylene glycol and terephthalic acid, napthalenedicarboxylic acid, 1,4-cyclohexane dicarboxylic acid and esters or anhydrides thereof. Such copolyesters may be formed into a variety of products, especially binder fibers for nonwoven fabrics.
