“…The synthesis of the monomers was reported in the same patent, while the optimization of F 2 CCF(CH 2 ) n OR (where n = 1 or 3 and R = H or Ac) was later on extensively described . Other functional trifluorovinyl monomers have also been prepared, bearing either an ω-insaturation − or a carboxylic, , a nitrile, an amide, a sultone, an epoxide, a hydroxyl, ,,, or a thioacetoxy group. , More exotic routes to trifluorovinyl end groups in metallic complexes have also been reviewed . Radical copolymerizations of VDF with F 2 CCF(CH 2 ) 3 OR , (according to the nature and the amount of the functional monomer, the T g values ranged from −23 to −8 °C) or with F 2 CCF(CH 2 ) 3 SCOR , have been investigated, leading to original elastomers .…”
