Process for preparing chlorotrifluoroethylene homopolymers having a low molecular weight

摘要

A chlorotrifluoroethylene homopolymer is prepared by polymering chlorotrifluoroethylene monomers in an ester solvent and in the presence of t-butyl peroxypivalate as a radical initiator. The polymerization application can be carried at about 60° C., and the resulting chlorotrifluoroethylene homopolymer has a number average molecular weight of about 1700.
