Abstract:
A multimodal terpolymer that comprises a low molecular weight Component A having a low melt flow index (MFI.sub.A), a high molecular weight Component B having a high melt flow index (MFI.sub.B), and optionally an ultra-high molecular weight Component C having a melt flow index (MFI.sub.C), each component being derived from interpolymerized units of (i) vinylidene fluoride, (ii) at least two ethylenically unsaturated monomers of the formula CF.sub.2 =CFR.sub.f where R.sub.f is fluorine or perfluoroalkyl of 1 to 8 carbon atoms wherein the weight ratio of Component A to Component B is in the range of 1:99 to 99:1 and Component C comprises up to 15 weight % of the total weight of Component A and Component B, and wherein the ratio of MFI.sub.A :MFI.sub.B is at least 2.
