Abstract
Abstract Disclosed herein is a poly(arylene thioether-ketone) composition improved in melt stability and crystallinity, which comprises (A) 100 parts by weight of a melt-stable poly(arylene thioether-ketone) (PTK) and (B) 0.1-30 parts by weight of at least one basic compound selected from the group consisting of the hydroxides, oxides and aromatic carboxylic acid salts of Group IIA metals of the periodic table other than magnesium and the hydrocarbyl oxides, aromatic carboxylic acid salts, carbonates, hydroxides, phosphates and borates of Group IA metals of the periodic table. The phosphates and borates include condensation products. The PTK has predominant recurring units of the formula <CHEM> and having a melting point, Tm of 310-380 DEG C, a residual melt crystallization enthalpy, DELTA Hmc (420 DEG C/10 min) of at least 10 J/g, a melt crystallization peak-temperature, Tmc (420 DEG C/10 min) of at least 210 DEG C and a reduced viscosity of 0.2-2 d l /g.
