Rubber compositions of low compression set

Abstract

A rubber composition of low compression set comprising 100 parts by weight of a mixture and 0.1 to 15 parts by weight of a peroxide crosslinking agent admixed therewith, the mixture comprising 5 to 55 wt. % of a peroxide-crosslinkable fluororubber containing vinylidene fluoride copolymerized therein in a proportion of 45 to 88 mole % and having a number average molecular weight of 20,000 to 200,000, and 95 to 45 wt. % of an acrylic rubber containing 0.1 to 1.5 wt. % of a polyfunctional monomer copolymerized therein and having a functional group rendering the acrylic rubber peroxide-cocrosslinkable with the fluororuber and a functional group effecting the copolymerization of the monomer with an acrylic ester, and molded product prepared from the composition.
