Abstract

The structure and properties of glassy amorphous perfluorinated polymers are considered with an emphasis of their use as membrane material. The results of the study of free volume in these polymers and simulation of their nanostructure are discussed. The perfluorinated polymers are featured by unusual thermodynamic properties, so the influence of these properties on the parameters of the membranes based on them is examined. In conclusion, various applications of the membranes based on the perfluorinated polymers (predominantly amorphous Teflon AF) in separation processes are described.
