A PROCESS FOR REDUCING THE REDUCED VISCOSITY OF A POLY(LOWER-ALKYLENE OXIDE) WHICH COMPRISES CONTACTING A FINELY DIVIDED, RESINOUS, POLY(LOWER-ALKYLENE OXIDE), SELECTED FROM THE GROUP CONSISTING OF POLY(ETHYLENE OXIDE) AND POLY(PROPYLENE OXIDE), WITH A DEGRADING AGENT, SELECTED FROM THE GROUP CONSISTING OF HALOGEN, ALKALI METAL HYPOCHLORITE, AND ALKALINE EARTH METAL HYPOCHLORITE, TO PRODUCE A SOLID POLY(LOWER-ALKYLENE OXIDE) HAVING A HALOGEN CONTENT OF FROM ABOUT 0.1 TO ABOUT 1.5 WEIGHT PERCENT, BASED ON THE WEIGHT OF SAID POLY(LOWER-ALKYLENE OXIDE), AND A REDUCED VISCOSITY OF AT LEAST 1 WHEN MEASURED AT A CONCETRATION OF 0.2 GRAM OF POLY(LOWER-ALKYLENE OXIDE) IN 100 MILLILITERS OF ACETONITRILE AT 30*C., SAID REDUCED VISCOSITY BEING LOWER THAN THAT OF THE STARTING POLY(LOWER-ALKYLENE OXIDE).
