Abstract: To provide a crosslinkable fluorinated elastomer composition which is excellent in crosslinking reactivity and of which a crosslinked product is excellent in heat resistance and chemical resistance. The crosslinkable fluorinated elastomer composition comprises a fluorinated elastomer (e.g. a tetrafluoroethylene/perfluoro(alkyl vinyl ether) copolymer) and an aromatic compound having at least two crosslinkable unsaturated double bonds (e.g. a compound represented by the formula (A-1)), and the crosslinked product is one obtained by crosslinking the crosslinkable fluorinated elastomer composition.

Abstract: To provide a fluorinated ether compound, a fluorinated ether composition and a coating liquid, whereby it is possible to form a surface-treated layer which has high initial water/oil repellency and which is excellent in abrasion resistance and fingerprint stain removability, and a substrate having a surface-treated layer and a method for its production. A fluorinated ether compound which has a poly(oxyperfluoroalkylene) chain ((??)n) made of at least two units (??) linked to one another, and which has a hydrolysable silyl group on at least one terminal of the chain ((??)n) via a linking group, wherein each unit (??) is a poly(oxyperfluoroalkylene) group comprising one to three groups (?) made of at least one type of a C1-2 oxyperfluoroalkylene group and one to three groups (?) made of at least one type of a C3-6 oxyperfluoroalkylene group.
