Polyfluorocarbons, properties

A recent review, along with numerous examples of electrophilic reactions of polyfluorocarbons, has a section summarizing data on physical properties of some Lewis acids and recommendations on their use in synthesis [12]. 

PROPERTIES OF SPECIAL INTEREST Commercial poly(amide imide) (Torlon) is melt-processable and injection-moldable either in neat form or with reinforcing fillers such as glass fiber, graphite fiber, and combinations of these with polyfluorocarbon and with Ti02. Parts fabricated from Torlon have excellent frictional properties, and can be used without lubrication in many apphcations.
