Abstract
Abstract Perfluoroglycidyl ethers of the formula: ##STR1## are prepared by epoxidation of a perfluoroallyl ether of the formula: CF.sub.2 ═CFCF.sub.2 OR.sub.F. The glycidyl ethers are useful as monomers for preparing polymers which are useful as stable oils and greases. Polymers containing functional moieties which provide crosslinking or cure sites are stable elastomeric materials useful as sealants, caulks, and fabricated objects.
