Abstract
A high flow polyphenylene ether resin composition with improved HDT values and flame retardance comprising a blend of at least two polyphenylene ether resins, a first resin having an intrinsic viscosity of at least 0.3 dl/g, and a second resin having an intrinsic viscosity of less than 0.25 dl/g and preferably having a particle size of at least about 100 &mgr;m. The composition preferably contains less than 30 wt % of the low viscosity polyphenylene ether based on the weight of the total composition. Fiber reinforced and flame retarded compositions also exhibit high HDT values.
