Weathering properties thermal energy

The unique properties of fluoropolymers are due to the strong bond between carbon and fluorine and shielding of the carbon backbone by fluorine atoms. Fluoropolymers exhibit excellent physicochemical properties such as high thermal and oxidative stability, good weather stability, extreme resistance to chemical attack, low surface energy, low coefficient of friction and low dielectric constant. Fluoropolymers, with unrivaled combination of properties, showed solutions to several industrial problems and facilitated several technological developments in our way of life. This review addresses only popular industrial fluoropolymers with their chemistry, properties and general applications. 

Polysiloxanes, usually referred to as silicones, are one of the most important synthetic functional elastomers due to their unique properties such as excellent weather resistance, good chemical stabihty, oxidation resistance, thermal stability, low-temperature toughness, electrical insulation, low surface energy, low toxicity and high optical transparency [18-26], These properties are attributed to the presence of...
