Patent number: 11098177Abstract: Fluoropolymers, specifically polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) polymers stabilized against color degradation due to high thermal exposure. The fluoropolymers are produced with free-radical initiators in the presence of surfactants containing acid end groups. The fluoropolymer resins are melt processed into final articles at high temperatures, above the melting point of the polymer. While the fluoropolymer is stable, residual acid surfactant causes discoloration during thermal processing. Stabilization is achieved by the addition of small amounts of ammonium or phosphonium cations to the fluoropolymer composition. It is believed the cations react with any residual acid to form a less reactive salt. These salts do not adversely affect the color of a melt processed product. The phosphonium or ammonium ions can be added to the fluoropolymer at any point from the polymerization step up to the thermal processing step. A preferred family of salts are quaternary alkyl ammonium halides.Type: GrantFiled: September 30, 2014Date of Patent: August 24, 2021Assignee: Arkema Inc.Inventor: James J. Henry

Patent number: 9605347Abstract: Provided is a method of forming a film having a surface structure of a random wrinkles. A compound according to the present invention is coated and then, a film having a surface structure of random wrinkles may be simply formed through simple ultraviolet (UV) curing or thermosetting. When the film thus formed is used in an organic light emitting device, light generated from the organic light emitting device is scattered on surfaces of the random wrinkles to prevent light guide or total reflection, and thus, light is extracted to the outside. That is, a random structure disposed at the outside of the device performs a light extraction function and consequently, light efficiency of the organic light emitting device may be increased.Type: GrantFiled: February 9, 2016Date of Patent: March 28, 2017Assignee: ELECTRONICS AND TELECOMMUNICATIONS RESEARCH INSTITUTEInventors: Jaehyun Moon, Seung Koo Park, Jeong Ik Lee, Jin Wook Shin, Doo-Hee Cho, Joo Hyun Hwang, Chul Woong Joo, Jun-Han Han, Jin Woo Huh, Joon Tae Ahn, Nam Sung Cho, Hye Yong Chu, Byoung Gon Yu

Patent number: 9567419Abstract: This invention pertains to a novel perfluoroalkyl-crosslinked fluoropolymer with perfluoroether pendant groups. The perfluoroalkyl-crosslinked fluoropolymer hereof is particularly well-suited for use in chemically and thermally aggressive environments, in part by virtue of the highly stable perfluoroalkyl crosslink. The perfluroalkyl-crosslinked fluoropolymer hereof can be prepared by crosslinking in situ a crosslinkable precursor in the form of a shaped article. A crosslinkable precursor is a fluoropolymer having a dichloroamino-functionalized functionalized perfluoroether pendant group.Type: GrantFiled: September 26, 2013Date of Patent: February 14, 2017Assignee: E I DU PONT DE NEMOURS AND COMPANYInventors: Christopher J.
