Abstract
The kinetics of radiation-induced telomerization of tetrafluoroethylene in chlorinated solvents was studied. In the presence of an additionally introduced chain-transfer agent, 1-decanethiol, the soluble telomers are formed more efficiently, and their yield increases. At the ratio tetrafluoroethylene: 1-decanethiol ≤ 2: 1, the completely soluble telomer is formed in the system. By varying the reaction mixture composition, it is possible to control the process and obtain a fully or partially soluble product in a high yield.
