Abstract
A novel process is described for the control of molecular weight in the preparation of polyphenylene oxide polymers. The process is based on the slow addition of additional amounts of a monomeric phenol to a polyphenylene oxide polymerization reaction mixture which comprises a main charge of a monomeric phenol, a polyphenylene oxide polymerization catalyst and a solvent, while continuing polymerization.
