Abstract
There are disclosed polyphenylene ether resin-based compositions containing high molecular weight polyethylene resin and polyphenylene ether flame-retarded resins which have been rendered non-dripping through the inclusion of a drip-inhibiting amount of high molecular weight polyethylene resin. Still more particularly, there are disclosed flame retardant modified polyphenylene ether resins, such as those containing high impact polystyrene, rendered non-dripping through the inclusion of a drip-inhibiting amount of high molecular weight polyethylene resin which has a weight-average molecular weight (M.sub.w) of greater than about 100,000.
