A granular polyarylene sulfide; (i) the granular polyarylene sulfide containing an -S-substituent at the terminal, the substituent being formed by cleavage of a disulfide compound; (ii) the granular polyarylene sulfide being an oversize fraction after sifting with a sieve having a mesh size of at least 38 µm; (iii) the granular polyarylene sulfide having a halogen content of at most 1,500 ppm; and (iv) the granular polyarylene sulfide being a granular polyarylene sulfide having a melt viscosity of 3 to 100 Pa€¢s when measured under conditions at a temperature of 310°C and a shear rate of 1,200 sec -1 . The granular polyarylene sulfide is well balanced in melt viscosity, halogen content, nitrogen content, thermal stability, and yield. |
