Polymers of Highly Fluorinated Monomers

It is reported that largely as a result of a need to protect metals from the corrosive effects of uranium hexafluoride and UFe) during separation of those 

The polymers, thus simply based on (CF2)n that subsequently come from that monomer are actually produced by the free radical polymerization of the alkene (tetrafluoroethene tetrafluoroethylene, CF2=CF2). They are known, generically, as
