PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a production method capable of obtaining a polyarylene sulfide at a low temperature and in a short time by solving such a problem that a high temperature and a long time is needed when converting a cyclic polyarylene sulfide into the polyarylene sulfide. SOLUTION: The method for producing a polyarylene sulfide includes heating a cyclic polyarylene sulfide in the presence of an organic carboxylic acid compound. A salt of arylacetic acid etc. are included as the organic carboxylic acid compound. Preferably, the heating is performed in the presence of 0.001-20 mol% of the organic carboxylic acid compound based on a sulfur atom in the cyclic polyarylene sulfide. COPYRIGHT: (C)2011,JPO&INPIT |
