Abstract
The present invention is a process for preparing a polymer having perfluorocyclobutane rings by the steps of (a) contacting monomers having at least two dimerizable perfluorovinyl groups; and (b) exposing the monomers to sufficient heat and for a sufficient time that a polymer containing perfluorocyclobutane rings is formed wherein at least about 0.05 mole percent of the monomer, have at least 3 dimerizable perfluorovinyl groups and polymers prepared thereby.
Claims4
A polymer having a backbone comprising perfluorocyclobutane rings, said polymer being formed from monomers having at least two dimerizable perfluorovinyl groups per molecule wherein at least about 0.05 mole percent of the monomers have at least three dimerizable perfluorovinyl groups per molecule.
