Description
TITLE OF THE INVENTION
CROSSLINKED FLUOROPOLYMER NETWORKS F(EtD OF THE INVENTiON
This invention relates to crosslinked flυoropoiymer networks formed by the free radical initiated reaction of fluoropolymers having acrylate groups at both ends of main polymer chains. BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
Elastomeric fluoropolymers (i.e. fluoroelastomers) exhibit excellent resistance to the effects of heat, weather, oil, solvents and chemicals. Such materials are commercially available and are most commonly either copolymers of vinylidene fluoride (VF2) with hexafiuoropropylene (HFP) or copolymers of VF2 , HFP, and tetrafluoroethylene (TFE).
Other common fluoroelastomers include the copolymers of TFE with one or more hydrocarbon olefins such as ethylene (E) or propylene (P), and also the copolymers of TFE with a perfluoro(aikyl vinyl ether) such as perfluoro(methyl vinyl ether) (PMVE).
Many fluoroelastomers require incorporation of a cure site monomer into their polymer chains in order to crosslink efficiently
(Logothetis, A.L., Prog. Polym. ScL Vol. 14, pp 251-296 (1989); A. Taguet et al. Advances in Polymer Science, Vol. 184.. pp 127-211 (2005)).
Without such a cure site monomer, the fluoroelastomer may not react at all with curing agents, it may only partially react, or reaction may be too slow for use on a commercial scale. Seals made from poorly crosslinked elastomers often fail sooner than might otherwise be expected.
Unfortunately, disadvantages are associated with many of the cure site monomers and curatives in use today. For example, some curatives (e.g. diamines) are toxic. Cure site monomers which contain reactive bromine or iodine atoms can release byproducts during the curing reaction that are harmful to the environment. Other cure site monomers (e.g. those which
contain double bonds at both ends of the molecule) may be so reactive that they disrupt polymerization of the fluoroβlastomer by altering the polymerization rate, terminating polymerization, or by causing undesirable chain branching, or even gelation to occur. Lastly, incorporation of a cure site monomer into a fiuoroelastomer polymer chain may negatively impact the properties of the fluorαeiastomer {both physical properties and chemical resistance).
There exists a need in the art for new fiuoroelastomer cure systems which are environmentally friendly, do not disrupt polymerization and which do not detract from the properties of the fiuoroelastomer.
Telechelic difunctional low molecular weight (number average molecular weight between 1000 and 25,000 daltons) copolymers of vinylidene fluoride (VF2) with perfluoro(methyl vinyl ether) (PMVE) and difunctional copolymers of tetrafluoroethyfene (TFE) with PMVE have been disclosed in US 20090105435 A1. A functional group is located at each end of the copolymer main chain. Functional groups disclosed include iodine, allyl, hydroxyl, carboxyl and nitrile.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

DETAILED DESCRIPTtON OF THE INVENTION
The present invention is directed to crosslinked fluoropoiymer networks and to a process for the manufacture of said networks. Fluoropolymers employed to make the crosslinked networks of the invention have an acrylate or methacryfate group at each end of pofymer main chains. By "main chain" is meant the longest chain of copolymerized monomer units, i.e. not side chains or branches.
The telechelic diacrylate fluoropolymers employed in this invention have the formula CH2=CR'COO-(CHs)2-R-(CH2)n-OOCCR'=CH2, wherein R1 is H Or -CH3, n is 1-4 (preferably 2 or 3) and R is an oligomer having a number average molecular weight of 1000 to 25,000 daitons, preferably 1200 to 12,000 daitons, most preferably 1500 to 5000 daitons. Oligomer, R, is selected from the group consisting of i) an oligomer comprising copolymerized units of vinylidene fluoride and perfluoro(methyl vinyl ether), ii) an oligomer comprising copolymerized units of vinylidene fluoride and hexafiuoropropylene, iii) an oligomer comprising
copolymerized units of tetrafluoroethylene and perfiuoro(methyl vinyl ether), and iv) an oligomer comprising copolymerized units of
tetrafluoroethylene and a hydrocarbon olefin. Hydrocarbon olefins include ethylene (E) and propylene (P). Optionally, oligomer, R, may further comprise at least one additional cσmonomer, different from the other two comonomers. Examples of such additional comonomers include, but are not limited to vinylidene fluoride (VF2), hexafluoropropylene (HFP), tetrafluoroethylene (TFE) and perf!uoro(methyl vinyl ether) (PMVE).
Specific examples of oligomers that may be employed in the fluoropolymers (and the diols used to make them) include, but are not limited to TFE/PMVE, VF2/PMVE, VF2/TFE/PMVE, TFE/PMVE/E, VF2/HFP, VF2/HFP/TFE, TFE/P and TFE/P/VF2.
The telechelic cfiaαyiate fiυoropolymers employed in this invention may be made by a process comprising A) providing a diol of formula HO- (CH2)n-R-(CH2)n-OH, wherein n and R are defined above; and B) reacting said diol with an acryloy! haiide or methacryloyl halide (e.g. acryloyl chloride or methacryloyl chloride) to form a diacrylate copolymer of formula CH2=CR'COO-(CH2)n-R-(CH2)n-OOCCR'=CH2, wherein R' is H (if an acryloyl halide is employed) or -CH3 (if a methacryloyl halide is employed).
Diois of formula HO-(CH2)n-R-(CH2)n-OH may be made from a mufti-step process beginning with the corresponding α. ω-diiodo oligomers of formula l-R-f prepared generally as described in U.S. 20090105435 A1. The tefechelic diiodo oligomers may be ethylenated (or allylated) by reaction, in the presence of a radical initiator, with ethylene (or ally! alcohol, followed by the selective reduction of the iodine atoms). The resulting oligomers may then be hydrolyzed to form the diols.
The crosslinked fluoropolymer networks of this invention are made by exposing the diacryiate fluoropolymer to a source of free radicals in order to initiate a radical crosslinking reaction through the termina! acrylate groups on the fluoropolymer. The source of the free radicals may be a UV light sensitive radical initiator (i.e. a photoinitiator or UV initiator) or the thermal decomposition of an organic peroxide. Suitable photoinitiators and organic peroxides are well known in the fiuoroelastomers art.
Specific examples of photoinitiators include, but are not limited to Darocur® 1173, Irgacure® 819 and Irgacure® 907 (available from Ciba Specialty Chemicals).
A specific example of an organic peroxide includes, but is not limited to t-butylperoxypivafate.
Optionaiiy, a composition containing diacryiate fluoropolymer and free radical source may be shaped prior to generating free radicals.
Compositions containing the diacrylate fiuoropotymer and free radical source may be made by combining the fluoropolymer and radical source in conventional rubber industry mixers such as 2-roli mills and internal mixers. Optionally other ingredients such as fillers (e.g. carbon black, mineral fillers, fluoropolymer micropowders, etc.), colorants, process aids. etc. commonly employed in the rubber industry may be included in the compositions.
Crosslinking takes place by exposing the fluoropolymer composition to UV radiation {if a photoinitiator is employed) or to sufficient heat to decompose the peroxide (if an organic peroxide is employed). Optionally, the fiuoropolymer composition may contain both a photoinitiator and an organic peroxide, so that both UV radiation and heat are employed to crosslink the fluoropolymer.
The crosslinked fluoropolymer networks of this invention are useful as durable coatings and films having good flexibility, chemical resistance and thermal properties.
EXAMPLES TEST METHODS

Analyses were performed with a Spectra-Physics chromatograph equipped with two PLgel 5μm Mixed-C columns from Polymer Laboratories and a Spectra Physics SP8430 Refractive Index (Rl) and UV detector. Tetrahydrofuran (THF) was used as eluent, with a flow rate of 0.8 ml min-1. Standards were monodispersed poly(styrene) (PS) or poly(methylmethacrylate). purchased from Polymer Laboratories or other vendors.
Fluoropolymer and oligomer compositions and microstructures were determined by 19F and 1H NMR spectroscopy. NMR spectra were recorded on a Bruker AC 400 (400 MH2) instrument, using deuterated
acetone as solvent and tetramethylsilane (TMS) (or CFCIs) as the references for 1H (or 19F) nuclei Coupling constants and chemical shifts are given in Hz and ppm, respectively The experimental conditions for 'H {or 19F) NMR spectra were the following flip angle 90° (or 30*), acquisition time 4 5 s (or 0 7 s), pulse delay 2 s (or 5 s), number of scans 16 (or 64) and a puise width of 5 μs for 19F NMR
The telechelic diacryiate fluoropolymers employed in the examples were made by the following procedures.
JFPl, CH2=CHCOO-(CH2)2-R-(CH2)2-OOCCH=CH2. wherein R is poly(vtnylιdene fluoπde-co-perf!υoro(methy! vinyl ether) [i.e. poly(VF2-co- PMVE)]
The diol oligomer employed m the fluoropolymer manufacturing process was made from a multi-step process beginning with a telechelic diiodo oligomer of formula f-(VF2-co-PMVE)-i The latter was made by the process disclosed in U S 20090105435 A1. This dnodo oligomer contained 71 5 mol% VF2 and 28.5 mol% PMVE and had a number average molecular weight of 2500 daltons
Ethylenation of the diiodo oligomer
A 160 mL Hastelfoy (HC-276) autoclave, equipped with inlet and outlet valves, a manometer and a rupture disc, was degassed and pressurized with 30 bar of nitrogen to check for leaks. Then, a 0 5 mm Hg vacuum was operated for 5 minutes (mm ) and subsequently an argon atmosphere was applied. Such a procedure of autoclave degassing was repeated five times Under vacuum, 5 O g (2.87 x 10*2 mole) of t- butylperoxypivalate (TBPPi). 50 mL of f-butanol and 100.0 g (0 077 mole) of the above-described telechelic diiodo oligomer were transferred into the autoclave. 6 0 g of ethylene (0 214 mole) was introduced into the autoclave Then, the autoclave was progressively heated to 75°C An exotherm was observed of about 10°C and an increase of pressure from 15 bars up to 18 bars, followed by a drop of pressure to 14 bars over 16
hours. After reaction, the autoclave was placed in an ice bath for about 60 minutes and 0.5 g of unreacted ethylene was siowly released. After opening the autoclave, the reaction mixture was dissolved in 100 ml of butanone and washed with distilled water (2 x 100 ml), Na2ScOs solution (100 ml) and brine (100 ml) respectively in a separating funnel Then, the organic phase was dried over MgSO4 and filtered through sintered glass (G4). The organic solvent was removed by a rotary vacuum evaporator at 40°C. reducing pressure to 10 mm Hg. The resulting slightly yellow viscous liquid was dried at 40°C under 0.01 mbar vacuum to constant weight. The yield of the reaction was 91%. The product was analyzed by 1H NMR and 19F NMR spectroscopy. An absence of the signal
corresponding to the terminal -CF2l (approximately -39 ppm) indicated quantitative conversion of the telechelic diiodopoly(VF2-co-PMVE) to ethylenated oligomer.

Then the flask was heated to 70°C. AiBN {2,2 -azobisisobutyronitrile) was added in 10 doses (55 mg each) with an interval of 60 min. between additions. The reaction was conducted under nitrogen atmosphere at 70°C for 12 hours. After cooling to room
temperature. 0.6 g of KF was added together with 50 ml of Et2O. Then the reaction was stirred at about 25°C for 24 hours. The reaction mixture was filtered through sintered glass (G5) to remove white solid such as Bu3SnK, Bu3SnF or Bu3SnI. The solvents were removed on a rotary vacuum evaporator (40°C/20 mm Hg). The crude product was dissolved in 50 ml of butanone and washed with water (2 x 50 ml). The organic layer was dried over MgSO4 which was then filtered through sintered glass (G4), The butanone was partly removed on a rotary vacuum evaporator and residue was precipitated from pentane. After cooling 12 hours at 4°C, pentane was carefully removed from the precipitated product by decantation. The residual solvent was removed by rotary vacuum evaporation (40°C/20 mm Hg). The resulting light yellow viscous liquid was dried (40°C/0.01 mbar) to constant weight. The product (overall yield 91 %) was analyzed by 1H and 18F NMR and FT-IR spectroscopy. The decanted pentane was also evaporated to give a low molecular weight fraction of the desired polymer.
Acryiation of Diol:
A 100 ml three-neck round bottom flask equipped with a reflux condenser and a magnetic stirrer was charged with 5.03 g (3.33 mmoies) of the above-prepared telechelic bis(propyt alcohoi)-poly(VF2-co-PMVE), 25 ml of THF, 4.5g of poly(vinylpolypyrolidone), 5 mg {0.045 mmoies) of hydroquinone and cooled to OX. Then acryioyl chloride (4.456 g, 4 ml, 50 mmoies) was added dropwise in three doses (2 ml, 1 ml & 1 ml). After the first addition of acryioyl chloride, the reaction temperature was increased to 40*C; the two subsequent additions were completed after elapsed times of 5 and 22 hours. An additional amount of poly(vinylpotypyrolιdone) (4.5 g) was then added to the reaction mixture. The reaction was conducted under nitrogen atmosphere at 40°C for 48 hours. After cooling to room temperature, the reaction mixture was filtered through sintered glass (G4) to remove poly(vinylpolypyrolidone). The filtered poly(vinyipolypyrolidone) was washed with THF. The solvent was partly removed by rotary evaporation and residue was precipitated in pentane. After 12 hours at 4*C, the pentane was carefully decanted, leaving the precipitated product. The residual solvent was removed by rotary evaporation (40°C/20 mm Hg). The resulting pale yellow viscous liquid was dried (40°C/0.01 mbar) to constant weight. The product (overall yield 91 %) was analyzed by 5H and fε'F NMR. The decanted pentane was also evaporated and returned a low yield (7 %) of a low molecular weight fraction of desired polymer.
