Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

An aromatic polysulfone resin having a yellowness index of 50 or higher and a weight average molecular weight of 25,000 to 45,000 is provided.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. An aromatic polysulfone resin having a repeating unit represented by formula (1): -Ph 1 -SO 2 -Ph 2 O—  (1) wherein Ph 1 and Ph 2 each independently represent a phenylene group, and each hydrogen atom in the phenylene group may be independently substituted with an alkyl group of 1 to 5 carbon atoms, an aryl group of 6 to 15 carbon atoms or a halogen atom; a yellowness index of 50 or higher; and a weight average molecular weight of 25,000 to 45,000, and wherein the proportion of the repeating unit represented by formula (1) relative to the total weight of all structural units that constitute the aromatic polysulfone resin is 80 to 100% by weight. 2. The aromatic polysulfone according to claim 1 , having a light transmittance at 380 nm of not more than 5% and a light transmittance at 650 nm of at least 60%. 3. The aromatic polysulfone according to claim 1 , wherein the proportion of the repeating unit represented by formula (1) relative to the total weight of all the structural units that constitute the aromatic polysulfone resin is 100% by weight. 4. A method for producing an aromatic polysulfone resin having a yellowness index of 50 or higher and a weight average molecular weight of 25,000 to 45,000, the method comprising a step of melt kneading an aromatic polysulfone resin having a weight average molecular weight of 50,000 to 70,000 at a temperature of 390° C. or higher.
