The polyester resin for a hot melt adhesive includes polycarboxylic acid residues and polyhydric alcohol residues. The polycarboxylic acid resides contain aliphatic polycarboxylic acid residues in a proportion within the range of 50 to 80 mol %. The polyhydric alcohol residues contain propylene glycol residues in a proportion within the range 5 to 60 mol %.

Polyester resin, hot melt adhesive, and hot melt adhesive solution

Provided is a hybrid-type polyester resin which, when used in processing a base material such as textile or PET film, can impart excellent flame retardance to the base material. The hybrid-type polyester resin can be inhibited from scattering high-temperature drips, even if the hybrid-type polyester resin burns. The hybrid-type polyester resin comprises both a polyester resin and a siloxane prepared from silica and an alkoxysilane. Therefore, the hybrid-type polyester resin retains the excellent properties inherent in polyester resin and exhibits extremely excellent flame retardance by virtue of hybridization with the siloxane. Even if the hybrid-type polyester resin burns, the hybrid-type polyester resin is less susceptible to deformation, and is therefore inhibited from scattering high-temperature drips.
