Abstract
Thin film of poly(hexafluoropropylene-co-tetrafluoroethlene) (FEP) rea cted with triethylamine (TEA) upon UV irradiation to give hydrophilic and oleophilic surface through complicated defluorination reactions su ch as introduction of diethylaminoethyl group and formation of unsatur ated bonds. Solvent and additive effects on the photoreaction strongly suggested the involvement of an electron transfer process from TEA to FEP.
