Abstract:
A liquid/gelatinous composition of matter comprising:(a) a solvent or a mixture of solvents selected from the group consisting of:(i) a C.sub.n F.sub.2n+2-x H.sub.x compound, wherein n is an integer from 6 to 15 and x is an integer from 1 to 3; and(ii) a C.sub.n' F.sub.2n'-x' H.sub.x' compound, wherein n' is an integer from 7 to 15 and x' is an integer from 1 to 3; and(b) one or more amorphous fluoropolymers selected from the group consisting of:(i) poly(HFP/TFE);(ii) iodine ended poly(TFE/PMVE);(iii) poly(TFE/PMVE/PEVE);(iv) poly(TFE/PDD);(v) poly(TFE/perfluorovinylether);(vi) poly(CF.sub.2.dbd.CF(CF.sub.2).sub.2 OCF.dbd.CF.sub.2 /TFE); and ##STR5##wherein the amorphous fluoropolymer has no detectable Tm(<1 J/g) by differential scanning calorimetry and wherein the amorphous fluoropolymer makes up 0.05 to 30 wt % of the composition and wherein at least 5% of the amorphous fluoropolymer present is in solution in the solvent or mixture of solvents.
