Abstract:
A fluoropolymer comprising a polymer reaction product of:a) at least one first alkylene co-monomer containing at least one fluorine atom; b) optionally at least one monomer selected from 1) at least one second alkylene containing at least one fluorine atom which is different from first alkylene co-monomer; 2) at least one alkyl ether containing at least one fluorine atom; or 3) at least one aliphatic or cyclic ketone containing at least one fluorinated alpha-alpha position; and c) at least one sterically hindered alkenyl or alkenyl ether organo-silane co-monomer with or without at least one fluorine substituent, wherein a) and b), if present, are present in a combined amount of at least 80 mol %, wherein said sterically hindered alkenyl or alkenyl ether organo-silane co-monomer comprises at least one alkoxy group that is a branched alkyl, cycloalkyl, or a heterocyclic group with or without at least one fluorine substituent.
