Patent ID: 8198372

Claim:
Vulcanizable fluoroelastomer compositions comprising: A) a fluoroelastomer matrix based on vinylidene fluoride (VDF) with a Mooney viscosity (1+10) at 121° C. of less than 35 MU (Mooney Units) measured according to ASTM standard D 1646; B) a semi-crystalline fluoropolymer, in an amount of from 20% to 70% by weight relative to the total weight of A)+B), the semi-crystalline fluoropolymer being chosen from tetrafluoroethylene (TFE) homopolymers and copolymers of TFE with one or more monomers containing at least one unsaturation of ethylenic type, in an amount of from 0.01 to 10 mol %, said semi-crystalline fluoropolymer having a mean particle size between 10 and 400 nm.
