Composite materials based on fluoropolymers and oxyfluoride glasses

Resumo

It was shown that molded specimens of polymer composite materials can be obtained by an extrusion method by melt blending of Fluoroplast F-2 MB (modified poly(vinylidene difluoride)) and oxyfluoride glasses of the composition 3B₂O₃ (40SnF₂–30SnO–30P₂O₅). The compositions of the observed phases of the composites were determined. Conclusions were made on the incompatibility of the components, their dispersion distribution, and strong adhesion interaction. Data on the nano level of the blending of the components were obtained. The elongation and Brinell hardness were measured in the composites with various (0–50 vol %) oxyfluoride contents. It was concluded that it is possible to produce composites based on fluorinated hydrocarbon and fluoroxide polymers.
