Abstract
Disclosed herein are copolymers of tetrafluoroethylene and n-alkyl trifluorovinyl ether which further contain either curesite repeat units and/or iodine. Such curesite repeat units, upon exposure to free radicals, may crosslink the copolymers. The iodine is introduced by carrying out free radical polymerization in the presence of an organic iodide chain transfer agent. The polymers according to the invention are especially useful as elastomers and/or as molding resins for articles or parts that may be exposed to a basic environment. The preparation of such polymers by aqueous emulsion polymerization is also disclosed.
