Abstract
Fluoropolymers display a wide range of remarkable properties and are used in a number of applications including high performance elastomers, thermoplastics, coatings for optical fibers, and hydrophobic and lipophobic surfaces. Fluorinated Polymers: Applications covers theproperties and applications of different fluorinated polymers. Topics include polyphosphazenes, poly(fluoroacrylate)s, perfluoropolyethers, copolymers based of various fluoroalkenes, tetrafluoroethylene and chlorotrifluoroethylene, PVDF, perfluoroalkylpolyethers and derivatives; fuel cell membranes. Written by internationally recognized academic and industrial contributors, the bookdisplays a great interest to those in industry and academia working in the fields of materials science, polymer chemistry and energy applications of polymers. Together with Fluorinated Polymers: Synthesis, prperties, processing and similation, these books provide a complete overview of different fluorinated polymer materials and their uses.
