Abstract
Over the past 25 yr several classes of polymers (epoxy resins, polyure thanes, polyacrylates etc.) derived from aromatic monomers bearing -C( CF3)(2)OH groups have been developed. These materials have exceptional heat, light and chemical resistance in addition to low surface energy , low water absorption and low dielectric constant. They have been sug gested for use in a variety of ways such as biological anti-fouling ma terials, dental composites, cladding for optical fibers, textile impre gnants and marine coatings.
