Abstract
The important fluoropolymers include polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE), perfluoroalkoxy polymer (PFA), fluorinated ethylene propylene polymer (FEP), ethylene-tetrafluoroethylene copolymer (ETFE), ethylene-chlorotrifluoroethylene copolymer (ECTFE), polychlorotrifluoroethylene (PCTFE), polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF), and polyvinyl fluoride (PVF). This chapter describes the classification, preparation, properties, fabrication, applications, safety considerations, and economics of fluoropolymers. Monomer synthesis and properties are discussed as well.
