  • Patent number: 11028199
    Abstract: The invention provides a powder that is easily redispersible in a liquid medium such as water. The powder contains a fluoropolymer. The fluoropolymer contains at least one group A selected from the group consisting of —SO2Y, —COOR, —SO3X, —SO2NR12, and —COOX, wherein Y is a halogen atom; R is a C1-C4 alkyl group; X is M1/L or NR14, where M is a hydrogen atom or an L-valent metal, the L-valent metal being a metal in group 1, group 2, group 4, group 8, group 11, group 12, or group 13 of the periodic table; and R1s are each individually a hydrogen atom or a C1-C4 alkyl group. The powder exhibits a dispersion of 50% or higher. The dispersion is calculated by filtering a composition obtainable by mixing the powder with water through a mesh having an opening of 20 ?m.

  • Patent number: 9644055
    Abstract: A method for preparing a fluoropolymer aqueous dispersion, including: step (A) of preparing a fluoropolymer aqueous dispersion comprising a fluoropolymer having at least one selected from the group consisting of —SO2Y and —COOR (wherein Y is a halogen, and R is a C1 to C4 alkyl) by emulsion polymerization; step (B) of heating the fluoropolymer aqueous dispersion to 50° C. or higher; and step (C) of contacting the fluoropolymer aqueous dispersion with an ion exchange resin for cation exchange after step (B), thereby providing a purified fluoropolymer aqueous dispersion, the fluoropolymer aqueous dispersion being adjusted to pH 7 or lower from the end of the polymerization in step (A) to the end of step (C).
