Abstract: An ethylene/&agr;-olefin copolymer having a density of 0.900 to 0.965 g/cm3; having an MI of 0.01 to 100 g/10 minutes; in a chromatogram with the use of Rayleigh ratio obtained by extrapolating GPC-MALLS data at a scattering angle of 0°, showing an average {overscore (Mc)} obtained by measuring five times of 0.5% or more and a standard deviation <&sgr;> from the average of 35% or less, wherein Mc stands for the chromatographic area ratio of the components having molecular weight of 1,000,000 or more calculated on the basis of the above measurement; and having a W30 (weight fraction of the portion eluted below 30° C.) in CFC measurement of 1 (% by weight) or less; and a film thereof.

Abstract: A process for producing a terminal-modified polyphenylene ether represented by formula (III): ##STR1## wherein Q.sup.1 represents a halogen atom, a primary of secondary alkyl group, a phenyl group, an aminoalkyl group, a hydrocarbon oxy group, or a halo-hydrocarbon oxy group; Q.sup.2 represents a hydrogen atom, a halogen atom, a primary or secondary alkyl group, a phenyl group, a haloalkyl group, a hydrocarbon oxy group, or a halo-hydrocarbon oxy group; n represents an integer of at least 10; X represents an oxygen atom or a nitrogen atom;R.sup.1 represents an alkylene group having from 1 to 12 carbon atoms; R.sup.2 and R.sup.3 each represents a hydrocarbon group having from 1 to 6 carbon atoms; s represents 1 when X is an oxygen atom, or 2 when X is a nitrogen atom; and t represents an integer of from from 1 to 3,which comprises reacting a polyphenylene ether represented by formula (I): ##STR2## wherein Q.sup.1, Q.sup.
