Definitions

  • the present invention relates to crosslinkable electroactive fluoropolymers, a process for preparing them, and films made therefrom.
  • Electroactive fluorinated polymers or PFEAs are mainly derivatives of polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF). See in this regard the article Vinylidene fluoride and trifluoroethylene-containing fluorinated electroactive copolymers. How does chemistry impact properties? of Soulestin et al. "in Prog. Polym. Sci. 2017 (DOI: 10.1016 / j.progpolymsci.2017.04.004). These polymers have particularly interesting dielectric and electromechanical properties. Fluorinated copolymers formed from monomers of vinylidene fluoride (VDF) and trifluoroethylene (TrFE) are particularly interesting because of their piezoelectric, pyroelectric and ferroelectric properties. In particular, they make it possible to convert mechanical or thermal energy into electrical energy or vice versa.
  • VDF polyvinylidene fluoride

  • fluorinated copolymers also comprise units derived from another monomer having a substituent chlorine, bromine or iodine, and in particular chlorotrifluoroethylene (CTFE) or chlorofluoroethylene (CFE).

  • the electroactive fluorinated polymers are shaped as films, generally by depositing from a formulation called "ink".
  • in the manufacture of electroactive devices it may be necessary to render some or all of the film insoluble in a predefined pattern. Indeed, it is often necessary to deposit other layers above the film of polymer, in order to manufacture the desired device. This deposition of other layers often involves the use of a solvent. If the electroactive fluoropolymer is not crosslinked, it can be damaged by this solvent during the deposition of the other layers.
  • crosslinking requires the presence of a crosslinking agent in addition to the polymer.
  • This agent complicates the preparation of the polymer film and may lead to the degradation of the electroactive properties. It is generally desirable to reduce the number of components used in the formulation for the preparation of the polymeric film.
