A colored polyester copolymer comprising the reaction product of at least one linear thermoplastic polyester precursor and at least ten parts per million by weight of a residue of at least one 1,4-bis (2,6-dialkylanilino)-9,10-anthraquinone colorant. A composition may be formed comprising the copolymer in admixture with at least one thermoplastic polymer. The copolymer may be formed by reacting at least one thermoplastic polyester precursor with a 1,4-bis (2,6-dialkylanilino)-9,10-anthraquinone colorant which has a polyester reactive group. |
