G. Legeay et al., AF FLUOROPOLYMER FOR OPTICAL USE - SPECTROSCOPIC AND SURFACE-ENERGY STUDIES - COMPARISON WITH OTHER FLUOROPOLYMERS, European Polymer Journal, 34(10), 1998, pp. 1457-1465
Four fluoropolymers are studied by Infra-Red, Raman and solid state NM
R; one of them (Teflon AF) is optically transparent thanks to the pres
ence of large ether cycles which prevent crystallization. Detailed inv
estigations of the different spectra lead to the interpretation of the
different lines characteristic of the constitutive fluoro-based sites
