Patent ID: 8785556

Claim:
A composition of matter comprising a first reactant, a linkage reactant, and a first functionalized reactant, the first reactant comprising at least one perfluoroalkyl group or segment and at least two hydroxyl groups, the linkage reactant being capable of linking the first reactant and the first functionalized reactant by a first reaction mechanism, the first functionalized reactant comprising a hydroxyl group and three or more inducible reactive groups that are capable of activation by a second reaction mechanism that differs from the first reaction mechanism, wherein each of the three or more inducible reactive groups comprises an acrylate group or a methacrylate group, and the remainder of the composition comprising optional solvents, catalysts, additives, fluorinated reactants, and other functionalized reactants that are capable of reacting by the second reaction mechanism, wherein the composition comprises the first reactant in an amount sufficient to form a surface having a surface energy of about 22 dynes/cm or lower at 20° C. after reaction by the first and second reaction mechanisms.
