Zusammenfassung:A resin composition provides good optical properties when stretched and efficient oxygen-scavenging, the resin composition comprising a film-forming polyester and an effective amount of oxygen-scavenging particles, wherein the particles have a particle size distribution such that particles of less than about 25 microns in size do not exceed a concentration defined by a formula that includes the apparent density of the particles. Another resin composition comprises a film-forming polyester and from about 50 to about 2500 parts by weight of iron per million by weight of the resin, wherein the amount of iron particles having a size of less than about 20 microns does not exceed about 800 parts per million by weight of the resin. A method is also provided for incorporating high levels of oxygen-scavenging particles into a film-forming polyester resin composition with low haze when stretched.
