  • Patent number: 9499678
    Abstract: A fluororubber composition which includes a fluororubber (A) and a carbon black (B). The fluororubber (A) is a vinylidene fluoride-based fluororubber including a structural unit (VdF unit) derived from vinylidene fluoride and a structural unit derived from at least one monomer selected from the group consisting of hexafluoropropylene (HFP), 2,3,3,3-tetrafluoro propylene, and perfluoro(alkyl vinyl ether) (PAVE). The molar ratio of the VdF unit to the structural unit derived from at least one monomer selected from the group consisting of HFP, 2,3,3,3-tetrafluoro propylene, and PAVE is 50/50 to 78/22. The fluororubber composition has a difference ?G? (G? (1%)-G? (100%)) of not lower than 120 kPa and not higher than 3,000 kPa, where G? (1%) denotes a modulus of shearing elasticity at a dynamic strain of 1%, G? (100%) denotes a modulus of shearing elasticity at a dynamic strain of 100%, and G? (1%) and G?

  • Publication number: 20140288226
    Abstract: The invention provides a method for producing a fluororubber composition that is able to give a crosslinked article that exhibits not only heat resistance, but also excellent mechanical properties at high temperatures. A method for producing a fluororubber composition includes: a step (1-1) of mixing a fluororubber (A) and a carbon black (B) by means of an internal mixer until the maximum temperature reaches 80 to 220° C. so as to obtain an intermediate composition; a step (1-2) of cooling the intermediate composition to a temperature of less than 50° C.; and a step (2-1) of mixing the cooled intermediate composition until the maximum temperature reaches not lower than 10° C. but lower than 80° C. so as to obtain a fluororubber composition.
