Carbon dioxide has several benefits, including being environmentally benign, a tunable solvent, resistant to chain transfer, and of low viscosity which facilitates high initiator efficiencies and fluid handling. Homo-and copolymerization of fluoroolefins such as tetrafluoroethylene (TFE), vinylidene fluoride (VF2), hexafluoropropylene (HFP), and perfluorinated vinyl ethers in carbon dioxide are particularly interesting because of the significant waste reduction and the elimination of potentially harmful processing agents. This review focuses on recent developments in polymerizing fluoroolefins via heterogeneous polymerization in carbon dioxide. At least one CO 2 -based polymerization process has recently been commercialized, and additional research is underway to understand the kinetics associated with polymerizing fluoroolefins in carbon dioxide. As researchers improve their understanding of CO 2 -based polymerizations, and as industry continues to look for more economically and environmentally-sound alternatives to existing processes, it will become more and more common to employ carbon dioxide as a polymerization medium.}, journal={POLYMER PARTICLES}, author={Kennedy, KA and Roberts, GW and DeSimone, JM}, year={2005}, pages={329–346} }

The polymerization temperature ranged from 65 to 85°C, the average residence time in the reactor varied from 10 to 50 min., and the pressure was between 210 and 305 bar. Diethyl peroxydicarbonate was used as the initiator. The fractional conversion of monomer varied from 7 to 26%, the number-average molecular weight of the polymer was between about 14,000 and 79,000, and the weight-average molecular weight was between about 21,000 and 700,000. In many cases, the polymer exhibited a bimodal molecular-weight distribution, especially at high monomer concentrations.}, journal={MACROMOLECULAR SYMPOSIA}, author={Saraf, MK and Wojcinski, LM and Kennedy, KA and Gerard, S and Charpentier, PA and DeSimone, J and Roberts, GW}, year={2002}, month={Jun}, pages={119–129} }
