Abstract
A free-radical initiated process for preparing fluorinated polymers wherein at least one gaseous fluoroolefin is polymerized in a stirred polymerizer, the improvement comprising preparing a non-volatile polymeric seed in a reaction zone separate from the polymerizer by decomposing initiator in the presence of fluoromonomer to form oligomeric free radicals and condensing said radicals onto previously prepared polymer; and conveying said non-volatile seed to the polymerizer.
