(Patent Application P 20 29 538.9-42)] The present invention relates to new ones monomers containing perfluoroalkyl groups, the homopolymers and copolymers that can be prepared from them, Process for the production of these polymers, their use to make them dirt-repellent of materials, such as textiles in particular, and mixtures of such homopolymers and copolymers together and / or with other polymers.

The new monomer compounds of the present invention are 5- (3-perfluoroalkyl-1,2,4-oxadiazolyl) -ethylenes and correspond to the formula I: in which formulas m is an integer from 1 to 18, preferably 3 to 7, and in particular 7, R1 is - - CH = CH2 or in particular -CH = CH2, and R2 represents an ethylenically unsaturated hydrocarbon radical derived from fumaric acid, maleic acid, citraconic acid, mesaconic acid or itaconic acid, in particular from fumaric acid; is derived.

These monomer compounds of the formulas I and II are obtained by means of known methods, for example as described by H.C. Brown and C.R. Wetzel in J.Org.Chem. 30, 3734 (1965).

In both cases of the preparation of the compounds of the formulas 1 and II, the fluorinated O-substituted amidoximes used as starting material can be prepared in a known manner - for example as described in British patent specification 1,178,891, according to the following reaction: For the monomers of formula I: For the monomers of formula II: In these reaction formulas, R1, R2 and m have the meanings given under formulas I and II, and Y denotes halogen such as chlorine or bromine.

The compounds of the formula mentioned in the reaction sequence for the preparation of the monomers of the formula II in which m and R2 have the meanings given above are new.

The condensation reaction is caused by the amidoxime and the acyl halide react together. These are expediently carried out Reaction in a solvent, suitably in dry acetonitrile and while stirring the reaction mixture for about 1 hour to 12 hours at a Temperature of about 25 "C to 85 ° C to ensure the highest yields. Avg subsequent evaporation of the solvent gives the desired product. If desired, this can be done by recrystallization from a hydrocarbon solvent, like petroleum ether mixed with a ketone, for example Acetone, or an ester such as ethyl acetate.

The starting materials for the O-substituted amidoximes are light obtainable or can be prepared by known methods. For example is the preparation of perfluoroacylamidoximes by Brown and Wetzel in J.Or.Chem., 30, 3734 (1965). The acyl halides are or may be items of commerce be prepared in a known manner.

Subsequently, by reacting the O-acylperfluoroacylarnidoxime with cyclizing agent or by thermal dehydration the monomer compounds of the formulas I and TI.

Examples of cyclizing agents useful for ring closure of the above O-acylperfluoroacylamidoximes mentioned are phosphorus pentoxide and formamidine or s-triazine.

The thermal dehydration is done by heating the amidoximes in a distillation flask with a direct flame at normal pressure or in a vacuum causes.

Preferred monomer compounds are 1,2-bis [5- (3-n-perfluoroheptyl-1,2,4-oxadiazolyl) 1-ethylene and 5-isopropenyl-3-n-perfluoroheptyl-1,2,4-oxadiazole.

As indicated in the formulas above, perfluoro groups with 1 to 18 carbon atoms are used, and it arises that mixtures of compounds with perfluoro groups with different numbers of carbon atoms can be used within the range given above. Both straight chain as well as branched perfluoroalkyl groups are included.

The corresponding polymers obtainable from the ionomers are those which have backbone chains, the repeating units of the formulas contain, where m has the meaning given under formula I and RL R11 -Cll2-C112- or and R2 'is a hydrocarbon radical derived from fumaric acid, maleic acid, citraconic acid, mesaconic acid or itaconic acid.

In addition to the homopolymers, the polymers according to the invention include the new fluoromonomers of the formulas I and II are copolymers with others Ethylenically unsaturated monomers and physical mixtures of such Homopolymers and copolymers together and / or with other polymers.

Because the new homopolymers and copolymers are mainly used as textile finishes Find use, it is often desirable to add about O, 2'bis in the monomer mixture Incorporate 5 percent by weight of a reactive acrylic comonomer, the crosslinking either by heating or by crosslinking agents.

Such reactive fluorine copolymers result in textile finishes with superior resistance to washing, dry cleaning, the chafing, the wear and the scuffing, both in the dry and in the wet condition, and there is better durability of the oil and water repellent Properties.

The polymerization is preferably carried out during a reaction period carried out in which a quantitative conversion of the monomers is achieved essentially will. The optimal reaction time depends on the catalyst used and the polymerization temperature and other conditions, but generally lies in the area from 0.5 to 24 hours'.

The polymerization is preferably carried out at atmospheric pressure.

In the solution polymerization, the monomer or monomers in one suitable solvents, such as fluorinated solvents, for example fluorine-halogenated hydrocarbons, such as hexafluoroxylene, trifluorotolubl or Mixtures thereof with acetone and / or ethyl acetate, in other fluorinated solvents and the like, and then in a polymerization vessel using initiators, such as azobisisobutyronitrile, benzoyl peroxide or tert.

For evaluation purposes, the textile material was used in the following examples immersed in a bath containing the polymer to be evaluated and the amount the retained solution adjusted so that about 2% of the polymer, based to the weight of the fabric on which the fabric remained. The tissue is at room temperature dried and in an oven at a temperature of about 175 "C for about 2 minutes hardened.

The type of fabric that is covered is not critical.

Table III Appearance of the repulsion (2% polymer on At- Vinyl ether mixed poly- fabric) game merisats tissue 3-M oil AATCC water 6a CH2-CHOCH3 yellow-white cotton 100 80 Powder wool 120 80 6b CH2 = CHOC2H5 yellow-white sticky cotton 100 70 Polymer wool 110 70 6c CH2 = CHOCH2CH (CH3) 2 yellow sticky cotton 90 70 Polymer wool 100 70 6d CH2 = CHOCH2CH2OCH3 yellow sticky cotton 100 70 Polymer wool 100 70 6e CH2 = CHOCH2CF3 yellow powder cotton 100 70 Wool 110 70 If in the above example instead of trans-112-bis-j5- (3-npel-fluoroheptyl-1,2,4-oxadiazolyl)} - ethylene cis- or trans-1,2-bis [5- (3-n- perfluoroheptyl-1,2,4-oxadiazoly1) j-propene or 2,3-bis [5- (3-n-perfluoroheptyl-1,2,4-oxadiazolyl)] propene and, instead of vinyl ether, styrene can be used one copolymers that show increased repellency ratings.

Example 7 100 parts of a mixture of equimolar amounts of trans-1,2-bis- [5- (3-n-perfluoropropyl-1,2,4-oxadiazolyl)] ethylene, prepared according to Example 3, and methyl vinyl ether, 300 parts of ethyl acetate and 1 part of azobisisobutyronitrile is melted in an ampoule under nitrogen and polymerized at 70 ° for 16 hours. After the polymerization, the polymer solution is diluted with 600 parts of ethyl acetate and precipitated in 20 times the amount of methanol. After drying, the copolymer is obtained as a fine yellowish white Powder with a melting point of 93 to 1020C.

The critical surface free energy of a polymer film, determined by contact angle measurements, as in Advances in Chemistry, Series 43, pages 1 through 49; A.C.S. (1964) is 12 dynes / cm. Copolymers with critical Surface free energies below 12 dynes / cm can be obtained if in the above Example trans-1,2-bis [5- (3-n-perfluoropropyl-1,2,4-oxadiazolyl)] ethylene Trans-1,2-bis- [5- (3-n-perfluorundecane-1,2,4-oxadiazolyl) J-ethylene or trans-1,2-bis- [5- (3-n-perfluorooctadecane-1, 2,4-oxadiazolyl) l-ethylene is replaced.
