Abstract

Abstract Stabilized fluoropolymer compositions comprising a polymer from about 40 to 60 mol percent ethylene, about 60 to 40 mol percent chlorotrifluoroethylene and optionally about 0.1 to 10 mol percent of a fluorinated termonomer selected from the group consisting of 3,3,3-trifluoro-2-trifluoromethyl propene, a vinyl monomer which is free of telogenic activity and which provides a side chain having at least two carbon atoms, the side chain being aromatic or having its elements bonded by a single bond only, and mixtures thereof, and as a stabilizing agent, a member selected from the group consisting of epoxy resins, mixtures of tribasic lead sulfate and bisphenol A, and mixtures of the epoxy resin, tribasic lead sulfate and bisphenol A.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 8
Claim 1
Independent Claim 94 words
A stabilized fluoropolymer composition comprising a polymer of from about 40 to 60 mol percent ethylene, about 60 to 40 mol percent chlorotrifluoroethylene, optionally about 0.1 to 10 mol percent of a fluorinated termonomer selected from the group consisting of 3,3,3-trifluoro-2-trifluoromethyl propene, a vinyl monomer which is free of telogenic activity and which provides a side chain having at least two carbon atoms, the side chain being aromatic or having its elements bonded by a single bond only, and mixtures thereof, and as stabilizing agent, a mixture of tribasic lead sulfate and bisphenol A.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 94 words
A stabilized fluoropolymer composition comprising a polymer of from about 40 to 60 mol percent ethylene, about 60 to 40 mol percent chlorotrifluoroethylene, optionally about 0.1 to 10 mol percent of a fluorinated termonomer selected from the group consisting of 3,3,3-trifluoro-2-trifluoromethyl propene, a vinyl monomer which is free of telogenic activity and which provides a side chain having at least two carbon atoms, the side chain being aromatic or having its elements bonded by a single bond only, and mixtures thereof, and as stabilizing agent, a mixture of tribasic lead sulfate and bisphenol A.
