The thermal properties of ion-conductive materials are crucial for their use in temperature-sensitive applications such as polymer electrolyte fuel cells. In this study, 1H,1H,2H,2H,-perfluorodecyl acrylate and methacrylic acid (MAA) copolymers are synthesized by initiated Chemical Vapor Deposition. This method is a solvent-free thin film deposition technique, which allows for the preparation of polymers in distinct stoichiometric compositions. The chemical stability of the copolymers was investigated upon elevated temperatures along with other thermal properties. For this, experimental techniques such as infrared spectroscopy and ellipsometry were used. The data show that samples are chemically stable up to 150
