Abstract
Abstract The present invention relates to a process for preparation of a highly fluorinated polymer by converting a polymer containing the recurring unit R--S'--X m , in which R denotes a base unit forming the matrix, X denotes identical or different functional groups, with the exception of halogen, and S' is an aromatic or araliphatic radical with m+1 free valencies, m being at least 1, into a highly fluorinated polymer by fluorination with elementary fluorine. The process is particularly useful for the preparation of cation exchangers, such as those which contain the unit ##STR1## in which C 6 F 10 represents a perfluorinated cyclohexyl ring.

A process for preparing a perfluorinated cation exchanger consisting essentially of contacting a polymer with elemental fluorine in the absence of liquid solvent said polymer containing a repeating unit R--S'--Xm wherein R is a base unit forming a polymer matrix, X represents the radical SO 2 F, S' is an aromatic or araliphatic radical with m+1 free valences and m is at least 1 to form a perfluorinated acid derivative and converting it into its corresponding free acid or an alkali metal salt thereof by treatment with water or an alkali metal salt thereof.
