Description

This disclosure relates to fluorine-containing polymers and methods for producing the same. Radical polymerization reactions are widely used industrially because they offer excellent monomer versatility and can be easily carried out even in polar media such as water. When haloolefins, particularly fluoroolefins, are used as monomers, haloolefin polymers can be synthesized. Haloolefin polymers are useful as raw materials for low-reactivity carbon-carbon double bond solvents, low-reactivity solvents, heat transfer fluids, pharmaceutical and agricultural chemical intermediates, fire extinguishing agents, surfactants, surface treatment agents, low-friction sliding materials, mold release materials, resin molding additives, chemical-resistant greases, low refractive index materials, low dielectric constant materials, heat-resistant elastomers, thermoplastic elastomers, flame retardants, chemical-resistant ionomers, and photoresist materials. One known method for polymerizing haloolefins is the method described in Patent Document 1. Patent Document 1 describes a radical polymerization method for producing a haloolefin polymer or copolymer by radical polymerization of a specific haloolefin in the presence of a specific organic tellurium compound. This method is called TERP (organotellurium-mediated living radical polymerization). International Publication No. 2018/164147 The embodiments for carrying out the present invention will be described in detail below. However, the present invention is not limited to the following embodiments. In the following embodiments, the components (including elemental steps, etc.) are not essential unless otherwise specified. The same applies to numerical values and their ranges, and do not limit the present invention. In this disclosure, the term "process" includes not only processes that are independent of other processes, but also processes that cannot be clearly distinguished from other processes, provided that the purpose of such process is achieved. In this disclosure, the numerical range indicated using "~" includes the numbers before and after "~" as the minimum and maximum values, respectively. In this disclosure, each component may contain multiple types of the corresponding substance. If multiple types of the substance corresponding to each component are present in the composition, the content or amount of each component means the total content or amount of the multiple types of substances present in the composition, unless otherwise specified. An aryl group is a monovalent group in aromatic compounds that corresponds to a residue obtained by removing one hydrogen atom bonded to any one of the carbon atoms forming the aromatic ring. The term is used as a general term encompassing both homoaryl groups derived from carbocyclic compounds and heteroaryl groups derived from heterocyclic compounds. An arylene group is a divalent group that corresponds to a residue obtained by removing one hydrogen atom bonded to any one of the carbon atoms in an aryl group. In this disclosure, the term "reactive carbon-carbon double bond" refers to a carbon-carbon double bond that can react in various ways as an olefin, and does not include aromatic double bonds. In this disclosure, the number of carbon atoms in a compound or its component means the number of carbon atoms in the substituent if the compound or component has substituents. In this disclosure, (meth)acrylic acid is a general term for acrylic acid and methacrylic acid. (Meth)acrylate is a general term for acrylate and methacrylate. (Meth)acrylamide is a general term for acrylamide and methacrylamide. "Polymers" and "oligomers" are compounds formed by the polymerization of monomers.
