Disclosed is a fluorinated polymer of the formula, r-s-p. In the formula, r is a fluorocarbyl group, s is sulfur, and p is: (i) polyglycerol; (ii) poly(allyl glycidyl ether); (iii) a copolymer of glycidol and allyl glycidyl ether, wherein the copolymer has one or more allyl groups; or (iv) poly(allyl glycidyl ether) or copolymer of glycidol and allyl glycidyl ether, wherein one more of the allyl groups have been replaced with a functional group as described in the specification of the present invention. Also, disclosed is a method of preparing the fluorinated polymer. The fluorinated polymer can be used in improving the hydrophilicity of porous hydrophobic membranes such as PTFE and PVDF. |
