Publication number: 20240158551Abstract: A fluororesin that includes a residue unit represented by formula (1), and a terminal group represented by formula (2); and a fluororesin that includes a residue unit represented by formula (1) and has a transmittance of 50% or more measured at an optical path length of 10 mm and a wavelength of 275 nm when dissolved in perfluorohexane to produce a 10 wt % perfluorohexane solution. In formula (1): Rf1, Rf2, Rf3, and Rf4 each independently represent one selected from the group consisting of fluorine atoms, C1-7 linear perfluoroalkyl groups, C3-7 branched perfluoroalkyl groups, or C3-7 cyclic perfluoroalkyl groups; the perfluoroalkyl groups may have an etheric oxygen atom; Rf1, Rf2, Rf3, and Rf4 may bond to each other to form a ring having 4 to 8 carbon atoms; and the ring may include an etheric oxygen atom. In formula (2), i is an integer of 3-20.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 22, 2023Publication date: May 16, 2024Applicant: TOSOH CORPORATIONInventors: Kota SAKAGUCHI, Kazunari IWANAGA, Tomoya SHIMONO, Tomonari NAGAI, Hiroshi YAMAKAWA

Publication number: 20240076426Abstract: The present invention relates to resin particles including a residue unit represented by the following general formula (1) and having a volume average particle diameter equal to or more than 5 ?m and equal to or less than 2008 ?m, and a method for producing thereof. Fruthermore the present invention relates to a fluororesin comprising a residue unit represented by a general formula (1) and having a weight average molecular weight Mw in a range of 5×104 to 3×105, and a yellow index of a heat-melted molded product (thickness 3 mm) after 24 h at 280° C. of equal to or less than 6, and a method for producing thereof. In the formula (1), Rf1, Rf2, Rf3, and Rf4 are each independently one of the groups consisting of a fluorine atom, a linear perfluoroalkyl group having 1 to 7 carbon atoms, a branched perfluoroalkyl group having 3 to 7 carbon atoms, or a cyclic perfluoroalkyl group having 3 to 7 carbon atoms. The perfluoroalkyl group may have an ethereal oxygen atom.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 21, 2023Publication date: March 7, 2024Applicant: TOSOH CORPORATIONInventors: Shohei YUMINO, Tomoya SHIMONO, Kota SAKAGUCHI, Tomonari NAGAI, Kazunari IWANAGA, Masao TANABIKI, Toru DOI
