Problems solved by technology

In this method, although it is not necessary to make major changes to the existing emulsion polymerization equipment, uniform particle size can be formed and its original characteristics can be maintained, and the polymerization rate can be shortened by more than 2 times. The productivity is still poor compared to the polymerization method
In addition, compared with the conventional iodine transfer polymerization method, the elastomer obtained by this polymerization method has no special improvement, and the above-mentioned problem of sealing performance remains.
[0011] There is no such manufacturing method for iodine-containing fluoroelastomers that combines productivity and maintenance properties

[0216] (polymerization of seed polymer particles)

[0217] In a polymerization tank having an electromagnetic induction stirring device as a stirring device with an internal volume of 1.8 liters, add 720 g of pure water, 290 g of 10% by weight of ammonium perfluorooctanoate aqueous solution and 0.6 g of diethyl malonate, and fully replace the system with nitrogen To decompress. This operation was repeated 3 times, 20 g of VdF and 51 g of HFP were added under reduced pressure, and the temperature was raised to 80° C. while stirring. Next, 0.02 g of ammonium persulfate (APS) dissolved in 0.6 g of pure water was blown in with nitrogen to start polymerization. The polymerization pressure was set at 2 MPa, and VdF / HFP mixed monomer (78 / 22 (mol %)) was continuously supplied to compensate for the pressure drop during polymerization, and the polymerization was carried out under stirring. Until the end of the polymerization, 215 g of monomers were supplied into the tank.

[0221] In a polymerization tank with an inner volume of 1.8 liters having an electromagnetic induction stirring device as a stirring device, 809 g of pure water and 200 g of a 10% by weight ammonium perfluorooctanoate aqueous solution were added, and the system was fully replaced with nitrogen before depressurization. Repeat this operation 3 times, add 0.5mL isopentane under reduced pressure, and then add each monomer, so that the phase composition at 80°C is VdF / TFE / HFP=29.0 / 13.0 / 58.0 mol%, and the pressure in the tank is 1.4MPa. After the completion of the temperature rise, 0.67 g of ammonium persulfate (APS) dissolved in 20 g of pure water was injected with nitrogen pressure to start polymerization.

Abstract

The present invention provides a process for preparing a fluorine-containing elastomer in a high productivity comparable to that of non-iodine transfer polymerization process by carrying out an iodine transfer polymerization at high pressure. The present invention also provides a fluorine-containing elastomer prepared by this process, and fluorine-containing molded articles. The process is a batch copolymerization process conducted under conditions that the reduced temperature of the critical constant is at least 0.95 and the reduced pressure of the critical constant is at least 0.80 wherein the reduced temperature and the reduced pressure are calculated using the Peng-Robinson formula from the critical temperature, the critical pressure and the composition ratio of each of the monomers in the gaseous phase in a reaction vessel, in which ethylenically unsaturated compounds containing at least one fluoroolefine are copolymerized in the presence of a compound having the formula: Rf<1>.Ix wherein Rf<1> is a saturated or unsaturated fluorohydrocarbon or chlorofluorohydrocarbon group having 1 to 16 carbon atoms, and x is the number of bonds of Rf<1> and an integer of 1 to 4.
