A method of purifying a poly(phenylene ether) is described. The method includes mixing a poly(phenylene ether) solution comprising a poly(phenylene ether) and a poly(phenylene ether) solvent with first washing solvents including a C1-C4 alkanol and water to form a first liquid phase including poly(phenylene ether) and poly(phenylene ether) solvent, and a second liquid phase comprising C1-C4 alkanol and water, and separating the first liquid phase from the second liquid phase. The first and second liquid phases combined comprise about 60 to about 95 weight percent poly(phenylene ether) solvent, about 4 to about 32 weight percent C1-C4 alkanol, and about 1 to about 36 weight percent water. When optionally combined with evaporative removal of the poly(phenylene ether) solvent, the method reduces C1-C4 alkanol usage compared to the antisolvent precipitation method, and it produces poly(phenylene ether) having reduced catalyst metal ion residue and reduced color.

A method of separating a poly(arylene ether) from a solvent includes treating a poly(arylene ether)-containing solution with a devolatilizing extruder to form an extruded composition, and cooling the extruded composition with a cooling device that does not immerse the extruded composition in water. The composition may be used to isolate a poly(arylene ether) from the solvent-containing reaction mixture in which it is prepared, or to remove solvent from a multi-component poly(arylene ether)-containing thermoplastic composition.

The present discloses a steel rail for high speed and quasi-high speed railways and a manufacturing method thereof. The steel rail having a superior rolling contact fatigue property can be obtained by reducing content of carbon in conjunction with controlled cooling after rolling. The steel rail includes 0.40-0.64% by weight of C, 0.10-1.00% by weight of Si, 0.30-1.50% by weight of Mn, less than or equal to 0.025% by weight of P, less than or equal to 0.025% by weight of S, less than or equal to 0.005% by weight of Al, more than 0 and less than or equal to 0.05% by weight of a rare earth element, more than 0 and less than or equal to 0.20% by weight of at least one of V, Cr, and Ti, and a remainder of Fe and inevitable impurities. The steel rail manufactured according to the method of the present invention maintains the strength and hardness of the existing steel rail for the high speed railways, while enhancing the toughness, plasticity and yield strength, and an energy value required for initiating and expanding microcracks formed at the surface of the steel rail due to fatigue is increased, and thus under the same conditions, the rolling contact fatigue property of the steel rail can be improved, thereby finally improving the service lifetime and the transportation safety of the steel rail.

A poly(2,6-dimethyl-1,4-phenylene ether) prepared using a morpholine-containing polymerization catalyst has a monomodal molecular weight distribution with a reduced content of very high molecular weight species. It also exhibits increased morpholine incorporation in the high molecular weight fraction. Compared to commercially available poly(2,6-dimethyl-1,4-phenylene ether) prepared using a di-n-butylamine-containing polymerization catalyst, the poly(2,6-dimethyl-1,4-phenylene ether) of the invention exhibits reduced odor. Compared to other poly(2,6-dimethyl-1,4-phenylene ether) prepared using a morpholine-containing polymerization catalyst, the poly(2,6-dimethyl-1,4-phenylene ether) of the invention exhibits improved molecular weight build during compounding and improved compatibilization with polyamides.
