FLUORINE-CONTAINING COPOLYMER - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18452892 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 mass percentage of hexafluoropropylene units is between 7.6% and 10.3%.
- The mass percentage of perfluoro(propyl vinyl ether) units is between 1.3% and 2.4%.
- The copolymer has a melt flow rate of 4.5 to 9.5 g/10 min at 372°C.
Potential applications of this technology:
- Coatings for surfaces that require high chemical resistance and low friction.
- Electrical insulation materials for high-temperature environments.
- Gaskets and seals for industrial applications.
Problems solved by this technology:
- Provides a copolymer with specific properties, such as chemical resistance and low friction, for various applications.
- Offers improved electrical insulation performance in high-temperature conditions.
- Enhances the durability and reliability of gaskets and seals in demanding industrial environments.
Benefits of this technology:
- High chemical resistance and low friction properties improve the performance and lifespan of coated surfaces.
- Excellent electrical insulation capabilities in high-temperature environments ensure safety and reliability.
- Enhanced durability and reliability of gaskets and seals reduce maintenance and downtime in industrial applications.
