Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 5
Claim 1
Independent Claim 166 words
Vulcanizable fluoroelastomeric compositions having, in the vulcanized state, a high adhesion to metals, comprising a polymer comprising vinylidene fluoride and chlorotrifluoroethylene, said polymer being present as: I. an elastomeric mixture consisting essentially of: (A) 1.3 to 30 parts of a copolymer (A) comprising, by weight, from 6% to 81% of chlorotrifluoroethylene; from 18% to 71% of vinylidene fluoride; from 0% to 41% of hexafluoropropene; and from 0 to 49% of tetrafluoroethylene; and (B) 98.7 to 70 parts by weight of an elastomeric copolymer (B) consisting essentially of, by weight: from 26% to 72% of vinylidene fluoride; from 25% to 44% of hexafluoropropene, and from 0% to 36% of tetrafluoroethylene II. a fluoroelastomeric copolymer (C) consisting essentially of, by weight, from 37% to 73% of vinylidene fluoride, from 22% to 41% of hexafluoropropene; from 0.6% to 7.5% of chlorotrifluoroethylene; from 0% to 37% of tetrafluoroethylene, characterized in that the total amount of chlorotrifluoroethylene units is in the range 1% to 10% by weight, calculated on the total.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 166 words
Vulcanizable fluoroelastomeric compositions having, in the vulcanized state, a high adhesion to metals, comprising a polymer comprising vinylidene fluoride and chlorotrifluoroethylene, said polymer being present as: I. an elastomeric mixture consisting essentially of: (A) 1.3 to 30 parts of a copolymer (A) comprising, by weight, from 6% to 81% of chlorotrifluoroethylene; from 18% to 71% of vinylidene fluoride; from 0% to 41% of hexafluoropropene; and from 0 to 49% of tetrafluoroethylene; and (B) 98.7 to 70 parts by weight of an elastomeric copolymer (B) consisting essentially of, by weight: from 26% to 72% of vinylidene fluoride; from 25% to 44% of hexafluoropropene, and from 0% to 36% of tetrafluoroethylene II. a fluoroelastomeric copolymer (C) consisting essentially of, by weight, from 37% to 73% of vinylidene fluoride, from 22% to 41% of hexafluoropropene; from 0.6% to 7.5% of chlorotrifluoroethylene; from 0% to 37% of tetrafluoroethylene, characterized in that the total amount of chlorotrifluoroethylene units is in the range 1% to 10% by weight, calculated on the total.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 24 words
