Patent ID: 7388054

Claim:
A composition comprising: a fluorocarbon polymer; a radical initiator; and a first curing co-agent comprising at least one silicon-containing group selected from a silane and a silazane, wherein the first curing co-agent has a structure selected from: (i) A—[B]x—C wherein A is selected from groups having the general formula SiRInR2(3-n), wherein each R1 is independently selected from a polymerizable ethylenically unsaturated group having 2 to 15 carbon atoms; each R2 is independently selected from a hydrogen atom, an aliphatic group having 1 to 15 carbon atoms, an aromatic group having 5 to 15 carbon atoms, and a group having the general formula NR′R″ wherein each R′ and R″ is selected from R1, a hydrogen atom, an aliphatic group having 1 to 15 carbon atoms, and an aromatic group having 5 to 15 carbon atoms; and wherein n is 0 to 3; wherein x is 0 to 15 and b is selected from groups having the general formula Q—Si(R3)(R4)—Q, wherein R3 and R4 are each independently selected from R1 and R2 and each Q is a divalent linking group independently selected from a linear alkylene; a branched alkylene; an arylene; an alkarylene; —NR′″— wherein R′″ is selected from R1, a hydrogen atom, an aliphatic group having 1 to 15 carbon atoms, and an aromatic group having 5 to 15 carbon atoms; a covalent bond; and combinations thereof; and wherein C is selected from A, R1, and R2; and wherein each R is independently selected from R1 and R2 and n is 0 to 2.
