Current knowledge of all these aspects is discussed and analysed, and some suggestions made as to further studies which might advance the subject. Materials covered include well-known polyesters such as poly(ethylene terephthalate) and poly(butylene terephthalate), through the less well-known poly(alkylene naphthalate)s and liquid crystalline polyesters, to ""new"" substances s ER -
