Abstract

Polymers and the process for producing polymers by the polymerization of at least three monomers wherein at least one monomer is selected from the group consisting of tetrafluoroethylene, trifluoromonochloroethylene, trifluoroethylene, vinylidene fluoride, 1,1-difluoro-2,2-dichloroethylene, 1,1-difluoro-2-chloroethylene, hexafluoropropylene, 1,1,1,3,3-pentafluoropropylene, octafluoroisobutylene ethylene, vinylchloride, trifluoronitrosomethane, perfluoronitrosoethane and alkyl vinyl ether,and at least one other monomer is selected from the group represented by the general formula: ##STR1## and at least one monomer is selected from the group of monomers represented by the general formula: ##STR2## These polymers are useful as ion exchange membranes in electrolytic cells, especially chlor-alkali electrolytic cells. Other uses include solid, strong acid catalyst useful in corrosive environments, electrodialysis and other similar membrane separation processes.
