Abstract Octafluoropentyl acrylate [H(CF 2 CF 2 ) 2 CH 2 ‐ C(O)CHCH 2 ] and polycaproamide (PA‐6) thread were copolymerized with a tert ‐butyl hydroperoxide initiator. The fluorine content of the thread was 0.87–1.33% after copolymerization. The creation of ester polyfluorinated alkyl groups on the end of the polyamide macromolecules by the homolytical substitution of hydrogen atoms in the α‐CH 2 group of the HNCH 2 (CH 2 ) 4 C(O) chain led to an increase in the tensile strength of the PA‐6 thread. © 2006 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
