Advances in Fluorine-Containing Polymers

Fluorine containing polymer science and technology is nearly 70 years old, and fluoropolymer commercial markets maintain a growth rate above the US GDP. Advances in the ability to tailor fluoropolymer properties continue to forge a wide range of technologies to better control their unique optical, electronic, processing, environmental stability, and surface properties.
The purpose of this book is to publish new discoveries from leading international laboratories including academia, government, and industrial institutions. The multidisciplinary nature of fluoropolymer research lends their development to applications including, but not limited to, automotive, aerospace, biomedical, and defense technologies.
This timely collection is based on the international symposium, Fluroine Containing Polymers, which was held at the 230th National ACS Meeting (Washington, DC), 238th National ACS Meeting (Washington, DC), and 242nd National ACS Meeting (Denver, CO) in 2005, 2009, and 2011, respectively. Many exciting new findings have been reported in these past symposia that include fundamental structure/property relationships, new polymerization methodologies for emerging applications, energy conversion, photonics, coatings, and processing.
The book is targeted for academic and industrial scientists and engineers who are engaged in research and developments of fluoropolymer synthesis, characterization, and materials processing.
