FLUORINE-CONTAINING COPOLYMER - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18452878 titled 'FLUORINE-CONTAINING COPOLYMER

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes a fluorine-containing copolymer that includes tetrafluoroethylene, hexafluoropropylene, and perfluoro(propyl vinyl ether) units. The copolymer has specific mass percentages of hexafluoropropylene and perfluoro(propyl vinyl ether) units, as well as a specific melt flow rate at 372°C.

  • The copolymer contains tetrafluoroethylene, hexafluoropropylene, and perfluoro(propyl vinyl ether) units.
  • The hexafluoropropylene unit content is between 7.0% and 8.5% by mass.
  • The perfluoro(propyl vinyl ether) unit content is between 1.5% and 2.9% by mass.
  • The copolymer has a melt flow rate at 372°C between 9 and 15 g/10 min.

Potential applications of this technology:

  • Coatings for various surfaces, such as metals or plastics.
  • Electrical insulation materials.
  • Chemical resistant components.

Problems solved by this technology:

  • Provides a copolymer with specific properties and composition for desired applications.
  • Offers improved chemical resistance and thermal stability compared to other polymers.

Benefits of this technology:

  • Enhanced chemical resistance and thermal stability.
  • Versatile material suitable for various applications.
  • Allows for precise control of composition and properties.


Original Abstract Submitted

There is provided a fluorine-containing copolymer containing tetrafluoroethylene unit, hexafluoropropylene unit, and a perfluoro(propyl vinyl ether) unit, wherein the copolymer has a content of the hexafluoropropylene unit of 7.0 to 8.5% by mass with respect to the whole of the monomer units, a content of the perfluoro(propyl vinyl ether) unit of 1.5 to 2.9% by mass with respect to the whole of the monomer units, and a melt flow rate at 372° C. of 9 to 15 g/10 min.
