Abstract
A polyester resin is prepared by polycondensing a dicarboxylic acid component containing terephthalic acid or its ester-forming derivative as the main component, and a diol component containing ethylene glycol as the main component in the presence of (1) a compound of at least one member selected from the group consisting of titanium group elements in Group 4A of the Periodic Table, via an esterification reaction or an ester exchange reaction, wherein the content of copolymerized components other than the terephthalic acid component and the ethylene glycol component, is not more than 4 mole % based on the total dicarboxylic acid component, and in a molded product with a thickness of 3.5 mm injection-molded at 280° C., the difference between the absorbance at a wavelength of 395 nm and the absorbance at a wavelength of 800 nm is at least 0.08, and the difference between the absorbance at a wavelength of 500 nm and the absorbance at a wavelength of 800 nm is at most 0.05.
