Abstract: The present invention relates to a liquid composition comprising a polymer bearing —SO3H groups and a perfluoroelastomer, a method for manufacturing said liquid composition and an article manufactured by using said composition. Preferably, said article is a proton exchange membrane, which shows at the same time good mechanical resistance and electrochemical properties and is useful for example as separator in fuel cells.

Abstract: The present invention pertains to a fluorinated thermoplastic elastomer, to a process for the manufacture of said fluorinated thermoplastic elastomer and to uses of said fluorinated thermoplastic elastomer in various applications, especially in low temperature applications.

Abstract: The present invention pertains to a fluoropolymer composition comprising an organic colouring compound, to a process for the manufacture of said composition and to uses of said composition in various applications.

Abstract: The invention relates to a process for the isolation of (per)fluorinated polymers containing sulfonyl fluoride functional groups from a polymerization latex. The process comprises adding the polymerization latex to an aqueous electrolyte solution under high shear stirring at a temperature equal to or lower than the glass transition temperature of the polymer. The invention further relates to the (per)fluorinated polymers containing sulfonyl fluoride functional groups isolated by the process and characterised by a loss of weight at 200° C. lower than 1% as determined by thermogravimetric analysis.

Abstract: The invention relates to an anti-sticking treatment for particles of fluoropolymers having low crystallinity that comprises deposition at least a partial coating of elementary particles of high crystallinity fluoropolymer on a core of the low crystallinity fluoropolymer particles.
