Surface and interfacial chemistry of poly(vinylidene fluoride)

Surface dehydrofluorinations of PVF$\sb2$ were examined to prepare "reactive handles" with which to effect further chemical transformations. Surfaces were analyzed by XPS, ATR IR, UV-vis, and contact angles. Using phase transfer catalysis and NaOH, modifications were surface-selective and...
