    Abstract: Described herein is a fluorothermoplast with long chain branching and a method of making such a polymer using a modifier of the formula: F2C═CF(CF2)a(O)RfH wherein a is 0 or 1 and Rf is a linear or branched fluorinated alkylene group comprising 1 to 5 carbon atoms and optionally comprising at least one ether linkage and optionally comprising 1 or 2 hydrogen atoms. This fluorothermoplast may be processed through polymer melt processes, such as blow molding, injection molding, film extrusion, and wire extrusion. Preferably, said polymer contains structural units derived from tetrafluoroethylene and a perfluorinated olefin or ether, and comprises chain branching.
