Abstract
Abstract A polyphenylene ether resin composition superior in impact resistance, heat resistance, mechanical strength, moldability, and flow properties, comprising a polyphenylene ether resin (A), a polystyrene resin (B), and a polyorganosiloxane-based graft copolymer (C) produced by graft polymerizing one or more vinyl monomers onto a polyorganosiloxane rubber which contains a graft-linking agent copolymerized and exhibits a degree of swelling of 3 to 15 measured in toluene.
