Fluoropolymersconstitute an attractive family of polymeric materials with remarkable properties such as high resistance to chemicals and heat, ferroelectricity and piezoelectricity for semi-crystalline polymers, to name a few. The incorporation of fluorinated blocks ina block copolymercan confer unique properties.Preparing fluorinated nanostructures through self-assembly would find use inadvanced applications. Thanks to the advances made in organic and polymer chemistry, a large diversity of fluorinated monomers and polymers are available andcould be used to designfluorinated copolymer architectures. This review summarizes the research performedon synthesis and solution self-assembly of fluorinated copolymers.
