This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18452146 titled 'COPOLYMER, MOLDED BODY, EXTRUDED BODY, BLOW MOLDED BODY, TRANSFER MOLDED BODY, AND COATED ELECTRICAL WIRE
Simplified Explanation
The patent application describes a copolymer made of tetrafluoroethylene and perfluoro(propyl vinyl ether) units. The copolymer has a specific content of perfluoro(propyl vinyl ether) units, a specific melt flow rate, and a specific number of functional groups.
- The copolymer contains 2.14 to 3.00 mol % of perfluoro(propyl vinyl ether) units.
- The copolymer has a melt flow rate of 33.0 to 50.0 g/10 min at 372° C.
- The copolymer has 50 or fewer functional groups per 10 main-chain carbon atoms.
Potential applications of this technology:
- Coatings and films with improved properties, such as chemical resistance and low surface energy.
- Electrical insulation materials with high thermal stability and low dielectric constant.
- Membranes for fuel cells and other separation processes.
Problems solved by this technology:
- Traditional copolymers may not have the desired combination of properties, such as melt flow rate and functional group content.
- Existing materials may not meet the requirements for specific applications, such as high-temperature stability or low surface energy.
Benefits of this technology:
- The copolymer provides a specific combination of properties, making it suitable for various applications.
- The copolymer's melt flow rate and functional group content can be precisely controlled, allowing for tailored material properties.
- The copolymer offers improved performance compared to existing materials in terms of chemical resistance, thermal stability, and surface properties.
