摘要:
Polyhydroxy curable fluoroelastomers that are substantially free of nucleophilic endgroups are grafted with a monophenol having at least one pendant group. The resulting grafted fluoroelastomers retain most of the properties of the original elastomers including excellent pre-vulcanization characteristics, while incorporating pendant groups which may be used for further modification, crosslinking or for changing the physical properties (e.g. Tg) of the fluoroelastomer.
摘要:
A base resistant, substantially amorphous fluoroelastomer comprising (1) 10-40 mole percent ethylene units, (2) 32-60 mole percent tetrafluoroethylene units, (3) 20-40 mole percent perfluoro ether units selected from the group consisting of perfluoro(alkyl vinyl ethers), perfluoro(alkyl alkenyl ethers) and perfluoro(alkoxy alkenyl ethers), and (4) 0.1 to 15 mole percent of a cure site monomer selected from the group consisting of i) perfluoroalkyl ethylenes and ii) perfluoroalkoxy ethylenes. Such fluoroelastomers may be vulcanized with polyhydroxy curing agents. The resulting vulcanized fluoroelastomers are resistant to attack by amines, strong bases and hydrogen sulfide and possess a combination of good low temperature and high temperature properties and they are resistant to oil swell.

Such fluoroelastomers may be vulcanized with polyhydroxy curatives. The resulting vulcanized fluoroelastomer compositions are resistant to attack by amines, strong bases and hydrogen sulfide and possess a combination of good low temperature and high temperature properties and they are resistant to oil swell.
摘要:
Perfluoroelastomer compositions comprising perfluoroelastomers having copolymerized units of tetrafluoroethylene, a perfluoro(vinyl ether), and a nitrile-containing cure site monomer are cured with compounds that are capable of generating ammonia at temperatures of 40° C.-330° C. to produce cured compositions having excellent thermal stability. The ammonia-generating compounds also act as cure accelerators in perfluoroelastomer compositions that incorporate other curing agents.
摘要:
Curable perfluoroelastomer compositions are prepared in the presence of an initiator system comprising a mixture of a persulfate salt and a reducing agent wherein the amount of reducing agent present is no more than 20 mole percent of the total initiator system. The perfluoroelastomer is isolated and decarboxylated, thereby providing a product having excellent processability.
摘要:
Compositions of specialty fluoroelastomers containing copolymerized units of tetrafluoroethylene, propylene, optionally vinylidene fluoride, and a cure site monomer selected from the group consisting of i) trifluoroethylene, ii) 3,3,3-trifluoropropene-1, iii) 1,2,3,3,3-pentafluoropropylene, iv) 1,1,3,3,3-pentafluoropropylene, and v) 2,3,3,3-tetrafluoropropene are readily curable with polyhydroxy curing systems. The resulting cured articles have a combination of excellent resistance to alkaline fluids, superior tensile properties and compression set resistance.

摘要:
A fluoroelastomer composition which has beneficial utility in the rapid manufacture of cured fluoroelastomer articles having good strength and resistance to compression set can be prepared by blending the following components: (A) an elastomeric copolymer of vinylidene fluoride and another fluorine-containing monomer, and (B) as a vulcanization agent, a carboxylic acid ester of 4,4'-sulfonylidiphenol (for example, 4,4'-sulfonyldiphenol diacetate); and when making the cured articles, it is also preferred to add (C) a suitable metal compound such as a divalent metal oxide or hydroxide, and (D) a suitable accelerator, for example a certain type of quaternary phosphonium compound.
