Methods of using fluoroepoxy compounds as adhesives for fluoroplastic adherends and products made therefrom

Fluoroepoxy compounds are made by reacting a fluoroepoxy resin with an effective curing agent, such as an adduct amine, and, while the compound is sufficiently liquid to wet a fluoroplastic surface, it may be applied to a fluoroplastic adherend, such as a Teflon, to be employed as an adhesive, to form various fluoroplastic products, without requiring any surface treatment of the adherend. The compounds are intentionally formulated with high fluorine contents, normally above 46% by weight, preferably for bonding fluoroplastics with a high F-content, above 55% by weight.

Cellular thermosetting fluorodiepoxide polymers

Thermosetting fluoropolymer foams are made by mixing fluid form thermosetting fluoropolymer components having a substantial fluorine content, placing the mixture in a pressure tight chamber, filling the chamber with a gas, at relatively low pressure, that is unreactive with the fluoropolymer components, allowing the mixture to gel, removing the gelled fluoropolymer from the chamber and thereafter heating the fluoropolymer at a relatively low temperature to simultaneously sure and foam the fluoropolymer. The resulting fluoropolymer product is closed celled with the cells storing the gas employed for foaming. The fluoropolymer resins employed may be any thermosetting fluoropolymer including fluoroepoxies, fluoropolyurethanes and fluoroacrylates.

Cellular thermosetting fluoropolymers and process for making them

Thermosetting fluoropolymer foams are made by mixing fluid from thermosetting fluoropolymer components having a substantial fluoride content, placing the mixture in a pressure tight chamber, filling the chamber with a gas, at a relatively low pressure, that is unreactive with the fluoropolymer components, allowing the mixture to gel, removing the gelled fluoropolymer from the chamber and therafter heating the fluoropolymer at a relatively low temperature to simultaneously cure and foam the fluoropolymer. The resulting fluoropolymer product is closed celled with the cells storing the gas employed for foaming. The fluoropolymer resins employed may be any thermosetting fluoropolymer including fluoroepoxies, fluoropolyurethanes and fluoroacrylates.
