Abstract
A polyphenylene ether random copolymer excelling in heat resistance and resistance to solvents, said copolymer being composed of 50-98 mol% of a structural unit of the formula ##STR1## derived from 2,6-dimethyl phenol and 50-2 mol% of a structural unit of the formula ##STR2## derived from 2,3,6-trimethylphenol, each of said structural units being randomly arranged in the polymeric structure, said copolymer having an intrinsic viscosity, as measured in chloroform at 25.degree. C., of at least 0.3 dl/g.
