PROCESS FOR THE MANUFACTURE OF REFLECTING BODIES

A process for producing light-reflecting bodies is described. The wall of the light-reflecting body consists of a polyalkylene terephthalate and/or a copolyester thereof, containing in each case 10-40% by weight of a finely-divided filler, a light-reflecting metal layer being applied directly to at...

Zusammenfassung:A process for producing light-reflecting bodies is described. The wall of the light-reflecting body consists of a polyalkylene terephthalate and/or a copolyester thereof, containing in each case 10-40% by weight of a finely-divided filler, a light-reflecting metal layer being applied directly to at least one surface of the wall. According to the novel process, a polyester moulding compound containing: (a) 90-60% by weight of a polyalkylene terephthalate and/or copolyester thereof, or of a mixture of polyalkylene terephthalates, and (b) 10-40% by weight of a finely-divided filler is subjected before shaping, at elevated temperature but at a temperature below the melting point of the moulding compound, to a vacuum treatment.
