Abstract
A polymer composition comprising at least two polyesters having improved mechanical properties including a good balance between ultimate tensile strength, elastic modulus and elongation on failure. In particular, the composition comprises from 1 to 99% by weight of at least one aromatic polyester (AP) comprising units from a diol component and units from an acid component, the units from the acid component comprising from 70 to 100 mol % of repeating units from at least one heterocyclic polyfunctional aromatic acid of renewable origin and from 99 to 1% by weight of at least a second aliphatic-aromatic polyester (AAPE). This composition is suitable for producing articles such as films, moulded objects, thermoformed objects or expanded articles. The heterocyclic aromatic acid is 2,5-furandicarboxylic acid and the aliphatic-aromatic polyester is biodegradable and is a copolyester comprising repeating units from aromatic acid of the phthalic acid type, aliphatic diacids, and aliphatic diols.
