Abstract
A hydrogenated product of an aromatic vinyl polymer, wherein the hydrogenation rate of the aromatic rings thereof is at least 97%, a ratio (Mw/Mn) of the weight average molecular weight (Mw) to the number average molecular weight (Mn) is at most 2.0, the weight average molecular weight (Mw) is 100,000 to 300,000, and the content of a component having a molecular weight (M) of at most 10,000 is at most 2% by weight based on the total weight of the polymer; a hydrogenated product of an aromatic vinyl polymer, wherein the content of foreign matter having a particle diameter of at least 0.5 &mgr;m in the hydrogenated polymer is at most 3.0×10 particles/g; and a substrate for information recording media obtained by molding a resin material containing a hydrogenated product of an aromatic vinyl polymer, wherein the hydrogenation rate of the aromatic rings thereof is at least 97%, a :ratio (Mw/Mn) of the weight average molecular weight (Mw) to the number average molecular weight (Mn) is at most 2.0, and the weight average molecular weight (Mw) is 100,000 to 300,000, and production process thereof.
