ABSTRACT Novel polyester molding compositions are disclosed which exhibit unexpected water absorption properties. The compositions of the invention include a polyester base resin (which preferably is a linear poly(alkylene) terephthalate, e.g., poly(butylene) terephthalate, or a copolyester elastomer having long chain ester units derived from corresponding long chain glycols of molecular weight 600-6000 and a carbon to oxygen ratio of greater than 2.5), and a copolyester elastomer having a multiplicity of long and short chain ester units, wherein the long chain ester units are derived from corresponding long chain glycols of molecular weight 400-3500 and a carbon to oxygen ratio of between about 2.0 to 2.4. Since the polyester molding compositions of this invention exhibit less water absorption, they may satisfactorily be employed to form parts where low swelling is a desireable physical attribute (e.g., as movable parts of a component having critical spatial tolerances).
