A poly(phenylene ether) composition includes specific amounts of a poly(phenylene ether), a hydrogenated block copolymer of an alkenyl aromatic monomer and a conjugated diene, a polypropylene or a polyethylene, a low molecular weight polybutene, a flame retardant, a liquid ultraviolet absorbing agent, and a poly(alkylene oxide). The composition can be useful as an insulation or jacketing material for wires and cables, where the insulation and jacketing materials including the composition can have reduced surface blooming. |
