PROCESS FOR THE RECOVERY OF FLUORINATED EMULSIFYING ACIDS FROM BASIC ION EXCHANGERS

To elute fluorinated emulsifying acids, especially perfluoro-carboxylic acids, from basic anion exchangers a mixture of dilute mineral acid and polar organic solvents is used. The solvent should be miscible with water preferably to an extent of at least 40%. By this process the required amount of el...

Zusammenfassung:To elute fluorinated emulsifying acids, especially perfluoro-carboxylic acids, from basic anion exchangers a mixture of dilute mineral acid and polar organic solvents is used. The solvent should be miscible with water preferably to an extent of at least 40%. By this process the required amount of eluent and the time of elution can be reduced while simultaneously the amount of recovered emulsifying acid can be improved. The process is especially suitable for the recovery of fluorinated emulsifiers in the coagulation or concentration of fluoropolymer latices.
