Abstract
Provided is a tetrafluoroethylene/hexafluoropropylene copolymer which is less likely to form a lump, or is less likely to form a large lump even if a lump is formed, during the formation of an electric wire. The tetrafluoroethylene/hexafluoropropylene copolymer has a melt flow rate measured at 372° C. of 35.0 to 45.0 g/10 minutes and a swell of −8.0% to 5.0%, the sum of the numbers of —CF2H groups and unstable end groups being 120 or less per 1×106 carbon atoms.
