Abstract:
The present invention relates to a microcomposite powder comprising particles from 1 um to 300 um of an electrically conductive product, which are coated with particles from 0.1 nullm to 0.5 nullm of a fluoropolymer. According to one advantageous form of the invention the microcomposite powder comprises a product (A) which is a polymer or an oligomer which can be dissolved with a solvent which is not a solvent for the fluoropolymer or for the electrically conductive product. The present invention also relates to objects consisting of this powder. These objects may be bipolar plates for fuel cells, or supercapacitor components.
Abstract:
A composition coextrudable with PVDF comprises in parts by weight: 20 to 40 parts of PVDF; 40 to 60 parts of PMMA; 5 to 18 parts of an acrylic elastomer; 1 to 4 parts of a UV absorber; the total making 100 parts. Coextruded films comprise a layer of the above coextrudable composition directly attached to the latter; and a PVDF-based layer comprising, as main constituents, 50 to 100 parts of PVDF per 50 to 0 parts of PMMA respectively. The PVDF layer may be in the form of two layers: one placed against the coextrudable layer and comprising, as main constituents, 50 to 90 parts of PVDF per 50 to 10 parts of PMMA respectively; and the other (also called the outer layer) comprising, as main constituents, 75 to 100 parts of PVDF per 25 to 0 parts of PMMA respectively. The resultant products are generally applied to substrates, e.g. as protective films.
