Adhesion to Fluoropolymers

Rapra Review Report
Vol. 16, No. 3, Report 183, 2006

By Derek M. Brewis and Ralf H. Dahm

The most effective methods to pretreat fully fluorinated polymers were developed in the 1950s. Much work, especially on electrochemical and plasma treatments, has since been carried out but to date these have not proved as effective as the early methods.

Partially fluorinated polymers may be treated like polyolefins, for example, flame, and plasma treatments are very effective. Aqueous and alcoholic solutions of Group I hydroxides are also very effective.
