Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 12
Claim 1
Independent Claim 135 words
A laminate prepared from (a) a first layer of peroxide curable elastomer composition of a terpolymer of tetrafluoroethylene, a perfluoroalkyl perfluorovinylether wherein the alkyl group contains 1 to 5 carbon atoms, and up to about 2 mole percent of units derived from an ethylenically unsaturated compound having a bromo- or iodo-substituent in an amount sufficient to provide at least about 0.1 mole percent bromine or iodine in the resulting terpolymer, and (b) a second layer of peroxide curable elastomer composition of a polymer selected from the group consisting of (1) copolymers prepared from monomers consisting essentially of tetrafluoroethylene, hexafluoropropylene, vinylidene fluoride and a bromo- or iodo cure site monomer; (2) silicone elastomers and (3) copolymers of tetrafluoroethylene and propylene, the laminate being co-cured and the first and second layers being directly bonded to each other.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 135 words
A laminate prepared from (a) a first layer of peroxide curable elastomer composition of a terpolymer of tetrafluoroethylene, a perfluoroalkyl perfluorovinylether wherein the alkyl group contains 1 to 5 carbon atoms, and up to about 2 mole percent of units derived from an ethylenically unsaturated compound having a bromo- or iodo-substituent in an amount sufficient to provide at least about 0.1 mole percent bromine or iodine in the resulting terpolymer, and (b) a second layer of peroxide curable elastomer composition of a polymer selected from the group consisting of (1) copolymers prepared from monomers consisting essentially of tetrafluoroethylene, hexafluoropropylene, vinylidene fluoride and a bromo- or iodo cure site monomer; (2) silicone elastomers and (3) copolymers of tetrafluoroethylene and propylene, the laminate being co-cured and the first and second layers being directly bonded to each other.
