ABSTRACT:
A thermoplastic bakeware article (i.e., an article formed to hold, contain or support food, while being heated in a microwave, conventional oven, convection oven, or the like) that is food-grade and resistant to dripping, stringing, and melting at high temperatures. The article has a composition comprising a partially crystalline polyester resin and a phenoxy resin. The composition is formulated so as to allow cross-linking between the polyester resin and the phenoxy resin at temperatures above about 400° F.
