  • Patent number: 3951930
    Abstract: A tetrafluoroethylene polymer or copolymer suitable e.g. for extrusion on to wire to give an insulated conductor is produced using a dual catalyst system. The first catalyst component is a catalyst giving a high molecular weight (low SSG) such as ammonium persulphate (APS). The second component is a dibasic acid peroxide e.g. disuccinic acid peroxide (DSAP) which is added after the polymerisation has reached 20% conversion. The latter catalyst is found to produce a copolymer powder which can be extruded on to wire to give faultfree coating.
