Abstract

Abstract A cured rubber composition, which is obtained by curing a composition consisting essentially of an amorphous ethylenepropylene rubber and a fluorine-containing ethylene polymer with an organic peroxide as a curing agent. The cured rubber composition is excellent in heat, chemical, oil and solvent resistance, and hence can be used portions where the convertional ethylene-propylene rubber have not been usable.
