Method of making an aqueous dispersion of fluoropolymers

The invention provides a process for removing steam-volatile fluorinated emulsifiers in their free acid form, from aqueous fluoropolymer dispersions. The process comprises adding a nonionic emulsifier, to the aqueous fluoropolymer dispersion and, at a pH-value of the aqueous fluoropolymer dispersion...

Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	The invention provides a process for removing steam-volatile fluorinated emulsifiers in their free acid form, from aqueous fluoropolymer dispersions. The process comprises adding a nonionic emulsifier, to the aqueous fluoropolymer dispersion and, at a pH-value of the aqueous fluoropolymer dispersion below 5, removing steam-volatile fluorinated emulsifier by distillation until the concentration of steam-volatile fluorinated emulsifier in the dispersion reaches the desired value.
