Abstract

This invention relates to a fluoropolymer nanocomposite comprising a fluoropolymer phase and an inorganic oxide phase dispersed throughout, said inorganic oxide phase having either no particles or particles substantially all of which have a particle size of less than about 75 nm which can be determined by small angle x-ray scattering and transmission electron microscopy techniques. These nanocomposites are useful as protective coatings.
