Abstract

Important thermoplastic fluoropolymers include polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE), perfluoroalkoxy copolymer (PFA), fluorinated ethylene_propylene copolymer (FEP), ethylene_tetrafluoroethylene copolymer (ETFE), ethylene_chlorotrifluoroethylene copolymer (ECTFE), polychlorotrifluoroethylene (PCTFE), polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF), and polyvinyl fluoride (PVF). This chapter describes polymer preparation, properties, fabrication, applications, safety considerations, and economics of fluoropolymers. Monomer synthesis and properties are also described.
