Abstract
Polyphenylene ethers are capped by reaction in the melt, with application of vacuum, with at least one trimellitamide, preferably phenyl 4-aminosalicylate trimellitamide. The preferred melt processing method is extrusion with vacuum venting. By this method, the polyphenylene ether is capped with reactive anhydride groups improving its thermo-oxidative stability. The capped polyphenylene ether is capable of forming copolymers with polyamides, and said copolymers are useful as compatibilizers for polyphenylene ether-polyamide blends.
