Abstract
The present invention provides a fluoropolymer capable of giving fluorine-containing molded materials and laminates excellent in moldability, productivity, interlaminar bonding and stress cracking resistance, in particular stress cracking resistance upon contacting with various liquid chemicals, without impairing such characteristics intrinsic in fluororesins as chemical resistance, solvent resistance, weathering resistance, antifouling properties, liquid chemical impermeability and nonstickiness. The present invention provides a fluoropolymer which is an oligomer-containing or oligomer-free fluoropolymer, wherein said oligomer has a molecular weight not higher than 10,000 and amounts to not more than 0.05% by mass relative to the fluoropolymer.
