Abstract
Abstract A graft polymer of polyvinylidene fluoride wherein the polyvinylidene fluoride has grafted thereon a polymer of an ethylenically unsaturated compound and a process for preparing such graft polymer by contacting polyvinylidene fluoride with a monomer of an ethylenically unsaturated compound in the presence of a radical forming catalyst while the polyvinylidene fluoride is maintained in the solid phase under conditions for polymerization of the ethylenically unsaturated compound.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 8
Claim 1
Independent Claim
78 words
A process for preparing a graft polymer of polyvinylidene fluoride wherein the polyvinylidene fluoride has grafted thereon a polymer of an ethylenically unsaturated compound which comprises contacting in the solid phase polyvinylidene fluoride with a monomer of an ethylenically unsaturated compound and diffusing said monomer and a radical forming catalyst into said polyvinylidene fluoride and thereafter maintaining said polyvinylidene fluoride in the solid phase under polymerization conditions for said ethylenically unsaturated compound and polymerizing said ethylenically unsaturated compound.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
78 words
A process for preparing a graft polymer of polyvinylidene fluoride wherein the polyvinylidene fluoride has grafted thereon a polymer of an ethylenically unsaturated compound which comprises contacting in the solid phase polyvinylidene fluoride with a monomer of an ethylenically unsaturated compound and diffusing said monomer and a radical forming catalyst into said polyvinylidene fluoride and thereafter maintaining said polyvinylidene fluoride in the solid phase under polymerization conditions for said ethylenically unsaturated compound and polymerizing said ethylenically unsaturated compound.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
61 words
A process for preparing a graft polymer in accordance with claim 1 wherein said polyvinylidene fluoride is contacted with said catalyst while the same is dissolved in a solvent, the excess solution is removed and the ethylenically unsaturated compound is thereafter brought into contact with and permitted to penetrate the polyvinylidene fluoride while the same is maintained in the solid phase.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
33 words
A process for preparing a graft polymer in accordance with claim 1 wherein said catalyst is dissolved in an organic liquid, diffusing this solution into polyvinylidene fluoride, after diffusion removing the organic liquid.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
19 words
A process for preparing a graft polymer in accordance with claim 3 wherein said ethylenically unsaturated compound is gaseous.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
23 words
A process for preparing a graft polymer in accordance with claim 4 wherein the graft polymerization is performed in a polymer extruding machine.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
25 words
A process for preparing a graft polymer in accordance with claim 1 wherein the polymerization is conducted at a temperature of 20° to 150° C.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
31 words
A process for preparing a graft polymer in accordance with claim 1 wherein the ethylenically unsaturated compound is acrylonitrile, styrene, an acrylate, a vinyl halide, a vinyl ester or an olefin.
