    Abstract: The invention relates to fluoropolymer articles that have been irradiated with at least 5 Kilo Gray of radiation, where the resulting articles have low levels of leachable or extractable fluoride ion. The low fluoride ion migration from the irradiated article is due to the presence of low levels of metalic salts or oxides in the fluoropolymer composition. The invention is especially useful for fluoropolymer articles in which the fluorpolymer layer contacts a biological or pharmaceutical fluid, and that are subjected to sterilization by irradiation.
