Synthesis of perfluoro(methyl vinyl ether) polymer at high pressures

摘要

Polymer of perfluoro(methyl vinyl ether) was synthesized for the first time. Polymerization was carried out at pressures from 300 to 1500 MPa and temperatures from 80 to 200 °C. The polymer synthesized is elastic, transparent, and soluble in perfluorobenzene, perfluorodecalin, and other perfluorinated solvents. The intrinsic viscosity of the polymer reaches 2 dL g~(-1). The study of the thermal stability on a derivatograph showed that the weight loss of the polymer sample occurred at 372 °C, being 0.1%.
