A method for producing polyphenylene ether amine includes following steps. In step (a), a hydrogenation reaction tank is provided; a guided gas stirrer is disposed in the hydrogenation reaction tank. In step (b), a reaction solution is placed in the hydrogenation reaction tank, and the reaction solution is nitro polyphenylene ether dissolved in a solvent. In step (c), a hydrogenation catalyst is added to the reaction solution. In step (d), a hydrogen gas is introduced into the hydrogenation reaction tank. In step (e), the guided gas stirrer is activated. In step (f), a hydrogenation reaction is carried out on the conditions that a reaction temperature is 50-200 degrees Celsius and a reaction time is 1-20 hours, so as to hydrogenate the nitro polyphenylene ether in the reaction solution to polyphenylene ether amine. In step (g), the reaction solution is cooled down to a room temperature; the hydrogenation catalyst is removed.
