A water- and oil-repellent includes, as an active ingredient, a fluorine-containing copolymer including as a copolymer unit (A) at least one of perfluoroalkylalkyl acrylates and corresponding methacrylates, (B) benzyl acrylate or benzyl methacrylate represented by the general formula: CFCHOCOCR&#x2550;CH(wherein R represents a hydrogen atom or a methyl group; n represents 4, 5, or 6; and m represents 1, 2, 3, or 4), (C) a fluorine-free polymerizable monomer other than benzyl acrylate and benzyl methacrylate, and (D) a cross-linkable group-containing polymerizable monomer.

Water-and oil-repellent

A water- and oil-repellent comprising an aqueous dispersion of a fluorine-containing copolymer including as a copolymerization unit (a) a perfluoroalkylalkyl (meth)acrylate represented by the general formula CFCHOCOCR&#x2550;CH(wherein R represents hydrogen atom or methyl group; n represents 4, 5, or 6; and m represents 1, 2, 3, or 4), (b) benzyl (meth)acrylate, (c) a fluorine-free polymerizable monomer other than benzyl (meth)acrylate, and (d) a cross-linkable group-containing polymerizable monomer; and a blocked isocyanate added to the aqueous dispersion in a weight ratio of 0.05 to 3.0 to the weight of the solid content of the aqueous dispersion.

A fluorine-containing polymer comprising a fluoroalkyl alcohol (meth)acrylic acid derivative represented by a general formula, CF(CHCF)(CFCF)(CHCH)OCOCR&#x2550;CH(in the formula, R is a hydrogen atom or a methyl group, n is an integer of 1 to 6, preferably 2 to 4, a is an integer of 1 to 4, b is an integer of 0 to 3, and c is an integer of 1 to 3) containing in 5 to 100 wt % as a polymerization unit. A organic solvent solution or aqueous dispersion of the fluorine-containing polymer is effectively used as, for example, a surface-modifying agent such as a water- and oil-repellent or an oil barrier.

Fluorine-containing polymer and surface-modifying agent containing the same as active ingredient

A fluorine-containing copolymer, which comprises a hydroxyl-terminated fluorine-containing vinyl ether, represented by the following general formula:CF&#x2550;CFORCHOH(where Rf is a fluoroalkylene group, a fluoroalkyl ether group, or a fluoroalkoxyfluoroalkyl ether group, having 1-25 carbon atoms), and at least one of other fluorine-containing unsaturated monomers, where a high-molecular weight fluorine-containing copolymer having a melt viscosity (230&#xb0; C.) of 0.1-100 g/10 min. is insoluble in a solvent, and can be used suitably for melt molding, whereas a low-molecular weight fluorine-containing copolymer having a glass transition temperature Tg of 20&#xb0; C., or higher, and a number average molecular weight Mn of 1,000, or more is soluble in a solvent, and can be used suitably for coating agents, etc. The fluorine-containing copolymer has a high light transmissivity, and a low refractive index, and also has, as such, a good adhesiveness to various substrated without any surface treatment, any adhesives, or the like.
