Abstract

See full text

A method for preparing a porous fluoropolymer precursor includes combining a fluoropolymer and a removable additive to form a composition, the removable additive having a thermal decomposition temperature greater than a sintering temperature of the fluoropolymer, compressing the composition to form a preform, and sintering the preform to form the porous fluoropolymer precursor. A method for preparing a porous fluoropolymer includes disposing the porous fluoropolymer precursor in a removing agent, contacting the removable additive with the removing agent, and removing, by the removing agent, the removable additive from the porous fluoropolymer precursor to form the porous fluoropolymer, wherein the porous fluoropolymer comprises a plurality of pores formed by removing the removable additive.
