Abstract

Abstract A polyphenylene ether resin composition comprising (a) a polyphenylene ether resin, (b) a polyester resin, and (c) from 0.1 to 10 parts by weight, per 100 parts by weight of the total of the components (a) and (b), an epoxidized liquid polybutadiene having an oxirane oxygen content of at least 0.07% by weight. The composition is excellent in solvent resistance and mechanical strength.
