Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 8
Claim 1
Independent Claim 187 words
A cross-linkable copolymer containing the copolymerization radicals of a fluorinated monomer, a hydroxylated allyl ether and a vinyl ether, wherein: (a) the fluorinated monomer radicals originate from the association of vinylidene fluoride and tetrafluoroethylene, (b) the allyl ether radicals originate from a compound of the formula: ##STR4## wherein R is CH 2 OH; R 1 being: H or CH 3 ; R 2 is ##STR5## with "p" being a number selected from 0 to 3, X being (CH 2 )q--O with "q" a number selected from 1 to 3, and R 5 and R 6 , (which can be identical or different) being: CH 2 OH, CH 2 --CH 2 --OH, CH 3 , C 2 H 5 ; R 3 and R 4 being H or OH, but not simultaneously H; and "n" and "m", (which can be identical or different) being numbers selected from 0 to 2; and (c) the vinyl ether radical originate from a compound of the formula: CH 2 ═CH--O--R 7 , wherein R 7 is a linear or branched alkyl radical containing 2 to 8 carbon atoms or a cyclic radical.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 187 words
A cross-linkable copolymer containing the copolymerization radicals of a fluorinated monomer, a hydroxylated allyl ether and a vinyl ether, wherein: (a) the fluorinated monomer radicals originate from the association of vinylidene fluoride and tetrafluoroethylene, (b) the allyl ether radicals originate from a compound of the formula: ##STR4## wherein R is CH 2 OH; R 1 being: H or CH 3 ; R 2 is ##STR5## with "p" being a number selected from 0 to 3, X being (CH 2 )q--O with "q" a number selected from 1 to 3, and R 5 and R 6 , (which can be identical or different) being: CH 2 OH, CH 2 --CH 2 --OH, CH 3 , C 2 H 5 ; R 3 and R 4 being H or OH, but not simultaneously H; and "n" and "m", (which can be identical or different) being numbers selected from 0 to 2; and (c) the vinyl ether radical originate from a compound of the formula: CH 2 ═CH--O--R 7 , wherein R 7 is a linear or branched alkyl radical containing 2 to 8 carbon atoms or a cyclic radical.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 36 words
The cross-linkable copolymer of claim 1, wherein the association for 100 moles of the two fluorinated monomers is constituted of: (i) 75 to 25 moles of vinylidene fluoride, and (ii) 75 to 25 moles of tetrafluoroethylene.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 66 words
The cross-linkable copolymer of claim 2, wherein it comprises radicals originating from: (i) 75 to 25 moles of vinylidene fluoride, (ii) 75 to 25 moles of tetrafluoroethylene, (iii) 4 to 15 moles of allyl ether per 100 moles of the total of the two fluorinated monomers, and (iv) 3 to 35 moles of vinyl ether per 100 moles of the total of the two fluorinated monomers.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 30 words
The cross-linkable copolymer of claim 3, wherein its intrinsic viscosity in dimethylformamide at 25° C. at a concentration of 1 g/dL is within the range from 0.06 to 0.9 dL/g.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 55 words
The cross-linkable copolymer of claim 4, wherein it contains radicals from a third fluorinated monomer, which does not contain chlorine in its molecule, in an amount such that, calculated on a monomer basis, it does not represent more than 15 moles per 100 moles of the total of the two monomers, vinylidene fluoride and tetrafluoroethylene.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 12 words
The cross-linkable copolymer of claim 5, wherein the third monomer is hexafluoropropene.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim 17 words
The cross-linkable copolymer of claims 1 to 6, wherein it is in solution in an organic solvent.
