(Field of Industrial Application) The present invention relates to a polyester resin composition which has improved crystallization speed without impairing transparency and is excellent mainly for molding bottles, films, etc., and a method for producing the same. (Prior Art) Polyester, particularly polyethylene terephthalate, is widely used as a material for bottles, films, etc. as well as fibers. In particular, the amount of polyethylene terephthalate used for bottles has increased rapidly in recent years, and it has been used in containers for seasonings such as soybean oil and sauces, alcoholic beverages such as whiskey, sake, and beer, and food containers such as drinks, carbonated drinks, and mineral water. As,
Furthermore, it can be used as a container for liquid detergents, cosmetics, etc. It is lightweight and does not easily break. Γ Excellent transparency. Γ Excellent hygiene. It takes full advantage of these characteristics. However, traditional polyester bottles have a
When filling seasonings or beverages at temperatures as high as ℃ or higher, parts of the bottle that are not stretched or oriented, such as the neck or shoulder of the bottle, are deformed and the appearance is impaired, so it is not suitable for filling contents at high temperatures. do not have. As a method for improving these drawbacks of polyester bottles, imparting heat resistance, and manufacturing bottles that can be filled at high temperatures, the neck and neck of a molded bottle or a polyester preform, which is a precursor of the bottle, is heat-treated to crystallize it. The method is described, for example, in Japanese Patent Application Laid-open No. 1983-
This is conventionally known in JP-A No. 79237, Japanese Unexamined Patent Publication No. 110221-1980, and the like. (Problems to be Solved by the Invention) However, when manufacturing a heat-resistant bottle according to conventionally known technology, the neck and shoulder parts, which are not stretched and oriented, are heat-treated to crystallize, but the heat treatment is performed at a low temperature. It is preferable to complete the process in a short time both from the viewpoint of productivity and the appearance of the manufactured heat-resistant bottles. However, polyester, which is the raw material for bottles with excellent transparency, also has a slow crystallization rate, so Γ transparent improve crystallization rate at the expense of properties. Γ Heat treatment for a long time at the expense of productivity for heat-resistant bottles. Increasing the Γ heat treatment temperature and shortening the heat treatment time will not only result in uneven heating, which will damage the appearance of the bottle, such as deformation of the neck and shoulder of the bottle, but also deformation of the neck and neck, which may lead to leakage of the filled contents. It is difficult to implement because there are concerns that it may lead to this. It includes some problems such as. (Means for Solving the Problems) The present inventors have arrived at the present invention as a result of intensive studies on raw material polyester, in order to make it possible to manufacture heat-resistant bottles by heat treatment at low temperatures and in a short time. be. That is, (1) a polyester resin composition formed by uniformly mixing 0.05 to 500 ppm of polyethylene with polyethylene terephthalate or a polyester mainly consisting of an ethylene terephthalate component. (2) A method for producing a polyester resin composition, which comprises adding polyethylene in a step before starting a polycondensation reaction when producing a polyester resin composition consisting of polyethylene terephthalate or mainly an ethylene terephthalate component. By producing and preparing such a polyester resin composition, although the crystallization temperature is lowered and the crystallization speed is increased, the transparency is improved. It was possible to obtain a polyester resin composition that is ideal as a raw material for heat-resistant bottles that will not be damaged in any way. (Function) In preparing the polyester resin composition of the present invention, it may be mixed in any polyester production process as long as it is mixed uniformly, and even polyethylene may be melt-mixed after producing polyester pellets. However, the manufacturing process of polyester, especially the raw material process: mixing in terephthalic acid (dimethyl terephthalate) or ethylene glycol, and the slurry preparation process: when preparing a slurry by mixing terephthalic acid and ethylene glycol. This method enables uniform mixing by mixing polyethylene in the esterification reaction step (or transesterification reaction step if dimethyl terephthalate is mixed), and immediately before the subsequent polycondensation reaction step. It is advantageous both in terms of performance and mixing cost. If the amount of polyethylene constituting the polyester resin composition is less than 0.05 ppm, the effect of promoting crystallization will be insufficient, and if it exceeds 500 ppm, the poor compatibility with polyester will become apparent and the composition will become cloudy and lose its transparency. 0.05-500ppm, preferably
Mix in the range of 0.5-100ppm. The polyester resin composition in which polyethylene is uniformly mixed is further subjected to solid phase polymerization, if necessary, and then used for molding purposes such as bottles and films. (Examples, Effects of the Invention) In evaluating the polyester resin composition of the present invention, thermal behavior such as crystallization temperature and crystallization rate was measured using a PerkinElmer DSC model 20
Measure by increasing the temperature at a rate of °C/min. In particular, the crystallization rate is determined by the height (B) of the exothermic peak caused by crystallization, which is determined by the length of the base.
Expressed as the value divided by (A). In addition, the intrinsic viscosity of the polyester resin composition is
The transparency of the polyester resin composition was measured at 20°C in a 6:4 (weight ratio) mixed solvent of phenol:tetrachloroethane.

A slurry was prepared by mixing 93 parts by weight, and the slurry was directly supplied to an esterification reaction tank, and an esterification reaction was carried out at 250° C. under pressure to prepare an ethylene terephthalate low polymer. Next, as a polycondensation catalyst, 138 ppm of germanium dioxide and phosphoric acid were added to the polyester resin composition.
Ethylene glycol solution was added in an amount of 156 ppm, and polyethylene (NOVATEC-LF-161 manufactured by Mitsubishi Chemical Industries, Ltd.) was added in the amount shown in Table 1 to perform a polycondensation reaction to produce the polyester resin composition shown in Table 1. Prepared. Example 6 and Reference Example 5 In the same manner as Example 4 and Reference Example 1, however, a low degree of polymerization polyester resin composition (prepolymer) with an intrinsic viscosity of 0.56 was prepared, and then the pressure was reduced using a tumbler type solid phase polymerization apparatus. Solid phase polymerization was carried out at 230°C to prepare polyester resin compositions shown in Table 2.
