Abstract
A method is disclosed for producing fluorocarbon ethers wherein a high molecular weight polyether is reacted with elemental fluorine to produce a highly fluorinated polyether which is subjected to an elevated temperature sufficient to cause fragmentation of the polymer chain to produce fluorocarbon ethers.
