Abstract
This invention pertains to sealing articles of vulcanized (per)fluoroelastomer compositions incorporating particles of a vinylidene fluoride (VDF) polymers having a Shore A hardness of at least 85 when determined according to ASTM D 2240 Type A Durometer method, and a compression set of less than 30%, when determined according to ASTM D395 at 200° C. for 70 h on O-ring according to ASTM D1414, and to a process for their manufacture by vulcanizing-molding and thermal post-treating at a temperature above the melting point of the VDF polymer.
