James ran the division for a while until leaving to start his own business, JR
Fluoroplastics, in 1980.
Among the topics are fluorinated peroxides as initiators of fluorinated polymers, anionic polymerization fluorinated vinyl monomers, synthesizing fluoro-functional conjugated polymers by electrochemical methods, structure-property relations in semi-fluorinated polymethacrylates, and the melt viscosity properties of
fluoroplastics: correlations to molecular structure and tailoring principles.
In addition, it will demonstrated how, used as a biding agent, 3M Dyneon
Fluoroplastics THV extends the lifetime of batteries, which is of particular relevance to the automotive industry, amongst others, as the high performance plastic offers very good barrier properties and withstands very high temperatures.
And working with
fluoroplastics is an established tradition at Agru."
Roy Plunkett and reward outstanding technical developments in the field of
fluoroplastics.
"But if they have multiple capabilities, for example thermoplastics,
fluoroplastics, braiding, and co-extrusion, that gives them a bigger toolbox to provide solutions.
Eleven chapters discuss the basic chemistry of fluorpolymers; the properties of commercial fluoropolymers; processing and applications of commercial
fluoroplastics; properties, processing, and applications of fluoroelastomers; technology and applications of aqueous fluoropolymer systems; other fluoropolymers; effects of heat, radiation, and environment on fluoropolymers; recycling of fluoropolymers; safety, hygiene, and disposal of fluoropolymers; and new developments and current trends.
For the comparatively well-established high-performance polyamides and
fluoroplastics, market share is spread across a wider supplier base.
Rapra Technology has published
Fluoroplastics, an introductory guide that includes a review written by an expert in the field that covers the basic chemistry, properties, processing methods and equipment, applications, recent developments, and trends.
