PROCESS FOR PREPARING HIGH PURITY MONOCARBOXYLIC PERFLUOROPOLYETHERS

A process for preparing monocarboxylic perfluoropolyethers of formula: A-O-(RF)z-(CFY)t-C(O)OX (I) wherein: X is H, C1-C10 alkyl, or an aryl group; Y=F, CF3; t=1, 2 or 3; A is a C1-C4 perfluoroalkyl end group; z=0 or 1; RF is a perfluorooxyalkylene chain; having a number average molecular weight in the range 180-8,000; comprising the following steps: a) one or more distillations of perfluoropolyethers (PFPE) of formula T-O-(RF)z-T′ (II) wherein: z and RF are as above defined; T, T′, equal to or different from each other, are selected from acyl fluoride or carbonyl-containing functional end groups and non functional end groups to obtain one PFPE fraction of formula (II) wherein the difference between the minimum and the maximum molecular weight of the components is lower than or equal to 600; b) partial fluorination of the fraction obtained in a); c) esterification c1) and/or hydrolysis c2) of the mixture obtained in b); d) distillation of the product obtained in c2) or in c1).
