Abstract

This investigation aimed to characterize and compare thermal degradation and UV absorption of two block fluoropolymers synthesized via Atom Transfer Radical Polymerization (ATRP). The block fluoropolymers are composed of poly(1-phenylethylene)-block-poly(2,3,4,5,6-pentafluorostyrene)-block-poly(2,2,3,4,4,4-hexafluorobutyl methacrylate) [PS-b-PFS-b-PHFBMA] and poly(4-fluorostyrene)-block-poly(1-phenylethylene)-block-poly(2,2,3,4,4,4-hexafluorobutyl methacrylate) [P4FS-b-PS-b-PHFBMA]. These polymers were chemically characterized using Fourier-Transform Infrared Spectroscopy with Attenuated Total Reflection (FTIR) and liquid Proton Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (1H NMR). Thermal degradation was evaluated using thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), and UV absorption was measured using UV-vis spectroscopy. The results showed that P4FS-b-PS-b-PHFBMA exhibited an initial weight loss 47% greater than PS-b-PFS-b-PHFBMA. Additionally, PHFBMA incorporation reduced the degradation temperature by 48% and 1.9% for P4FS-b-PS-b-PHFBMA and PS-b-PFS-b-PHFBMA, respectively. Furthermore, upon incorporating PHFBMA into the polymer chain, an additional absorption at 315 nm was observed in the UV spectrum for both fluoropolymers. This research successfully synthesized a new triblock fluoropolymer (P4FS-b-PS-b-PHFBMA) via ATRP and highlights the importance of block polymer chemistry that induces changes in thermal degradation and light absorption in the UV-vis spectrum, which could impact the design of polymeric materials for industrial or technological applications, such as optoelectronic devices or thermal protection systems.
