Abstract

Abstract A uniform mixture of a polytetrafluoroethylene molding powder and an organic filler, which can provide moldings having improved properties without lowering the appearance and mechanical property, is obtained without sticking the filler to the wall of a mixer by mixing the molding powder and the filler in the presence of a silane coupling agent and a polar solvent, or by previously treating the organic filler with the silane coupling agent and mixing the treated filler with the molding powder.
