Abstract

Double bonds in saturated fluoroelastomers consisting of copolymers of vinylidene fluoride with hexafluoropropene and/or chlorotrifluoroethylene, and optionally tetrafluoroethylene, are obtained by reacting the polymer in a solution of a water-insoluble solvent in the presence of an aqueous phase, an inorganic base, and a phase-transfer catalyst.
