Abstract:This study focuses on the synthesizing of liquidterminated carboxyl fluoropolymers (LTCFs) from poly-(vinylidene fluoride-co-hexafluoropropylene) (P(VDF-HFP)) through microwave (MW)-assisted oxidative degradation. An indepth analysis was conducted on the preparation process, the duration of MW irradiation, and the resulting changes in LTCFs. Chemical titration and gel permeation chromatography (GPC) revealed that the MW-assisted oxidative degradation was achieved in 150−240 s, which is several orders of magnit… Show more
