New Experimental Challenges in Elemental Fluorine Chemistry; an Emerging Technology

Abstract

This final report covers the most recent progress in this research program which has had ongoing support from AFOSR for the past twelve years including the synthesis of perfluoropolyethers via hydrocarbon polyesters, the synthesis of branched perfluoroethers, the synthesis of the first perfluoro crown ethers and the process for partial fluorination of gas separation membranes. Keywords: Elemental fluorine, Copolymerization, Direct fluorination, Polymers, Perfluoropolyethers, Fluorocarbons.
