Summary:Disclosed are partially fluorinated and fully fluorinated polymers that are substantially transparent to ultraviolet radiation at wavelengths from 187 to 260 nanometers. An ultraviolet transparent material exhibiting an absorbance/micron (A/micrometer) <=1 at wavelengths from 187-260 nm comprising amorphous vinyl copolymers of CX2CY2, wherein X is -F or -CF3 and Y is H and 0 to 25 mole % of one or more monomers CRaRb=CRcRd where the CRaRb=CRcRd enters the copolymer in random fashion, or 40 to 60 mole % of one or more monomers CRaRb=CRcRd in the case where the CRaRb=CRcRd enters the copolymer in alternating fashion where each of Ra, Rb, and Rc is selected independently from H or F and where Rd is selected from the group consisting of -F, -CF3, -ORf where Rf is CnF2n+1 with n=1 to 3, -OH (when Rc=H), and Cl (when Ra, Rb and Rc=F).
