A composition comprising:
- (i) a partially fluorinated elastomer gum comprising a partially fluorinated polymer;
- and
- (ii) less than 10 wt % of an ionic liquid based on the total weight of the partially fluorinated polymer and the ionic liquid, wherein partially fluorinated polymer has a first glass transition temperature and the addition of the ionic liquid to the partially fluorinated polymer has a second glass transition temperature and the second glass transition temperature is less than 2° C. different from the first glass transition temperature.
A composition comprising:
- (i) a cured partially fluorinated elastomer comprising a partially fluorinated polymer;
- and
- (ii) less than 10 wt % of an ionic liquid based on the total weight of the partially fluorinated polymer and the ionic liquid, wherein partially fluorinated polymer has a first glass transition temperature and the addition of the ionic liquid to the partially fluorinated polymer has a second glass transition temperature and the second glass transition temperature is less than 2° C. different from the first glass transition temperature.
A method comprising blending (i) partially fluorinated elastomer gum comprising a partially fluorinated polymer and (ii) less than 10 wt % of an ionic liquid based on the total weight of the partially fluorinated polymer and the ionic liquid, wherein partially fluorinated polymer has a first glass transition temperature and the addition of the ionic liquid to the partially fluorinated polymer has a second glass transition temperature and the second glass transition temperature is less than 2° C. different from the first glass transition temperature.
