Abstract

The synthesis of CnF2n+ 1 (VDF) x–(CH2) p–where n= 2, 4; x= 2, 3, 4; p= 0, 1, 2 and VDF and stand for vinylidene fluoride (VDF) and I, OH, or CO2H, respectively, are presented. First, the radical telomerization of VDF with CnF2n+ 1–I to direct low molecular weight- telomers was investigated in various experimental conditions: initiators, temperatures and solvents to favour the formation of CnF2n+ 1 (VDF) xI. Whatever the experimental ...
