Vulcanisable compound of the present invention can make by Perfluoroelastomer, peroxide vulcanizing agent and other additive are mixed in conventional rubber tooling.This equipment comprises rubber mixing mill, Banbury mixer such as Banbury mixer and mixes forcing machine.
Before the present invention, people are difficult to prepare the composition that contains Perfluoroelastomer.In general, this composition need use the processing units of heating, prevents that composition from forming frangible material.Perfluoroelastomer sizing material of the present invention does not need to use the roller or the processing units of heating in mixing process.They can prepare at ambient temperature, and can not form frangible material.Basically not having reactive terminal group on Perfluoroelastomer is the partly cause that causes this situation at least.Basically do not exist these groups can reduce reactive problem to greatest extent, obviously improve as heat release or the viscosity that in the process that adds acid acceptor, is taken place.Compound viscosity can not improve the problem that can prevent mobile and loading mould cavity.Mixing at a lower temperature ability makes and begins too early to vulcanize or the problem of crosslinking reaction is reduced to minimum.
Vulcanisable compound of the present invention can be used for making the goods such as packing ring, flexible pipe and sealing.This goods make through following method, carry out molding adding the batching prescription of depressing vulcanisable compound and various additives, vulcanize this parts, then it are carried out the postcure circulation.In the process of molding step, Perfluoroelastomer of the present invention also demonstrates other advantage.Very fast or the required pressure of mold filling is lower, shows that viscosity is less.When removing moulded parts (press cured part) from mould or when articles injection-moulded, seeing that obviously the demoulding improves.Vulcanising composition has good thermostability and chemical resistant properties.They are particularly useful for following purposes, for example make sealing and the packing ring that semiconductor devices uses and are used for the sealing that high temperature automotive is used.
Following embodiment will further specify the present invention.In these embodiments, test performance as follows.

The mooney viscosity of comparative polymer A (ML 1+10 in the time of 121 ℃) is 76, and polymer A is 96.
Mixing each polymer latex of 100 weight parts, its way are to add 15 weight parts (phr) N990 carbon black, 5phr zinc oxide, the 1.5phr Luperco available from Atochem in each polymer latex
TM101 XL organo-peroxides and 2phr are available from isocyanic acid triallyl-dry liquids concentrate (TAIC-DLC of Harwick; 72% activity).
Polymer A is carried out mixing in mill in a usual manner.Comparative polymer A must carry out mixing in (50-70 ℃) mill of heating because if in a usual manner (condition of promptly using standard or not heating) mixing words it can become fragile and powder.
Table 1 has been listed the rheological data that obtain from the MDR test.

Except not using-sulfinate, only use 1 the gram APS and 11.0 the crust pressure under carry out outside the polymerization, all the other all prepare comparative polymer B by the similar mode of polymer B.
The mooney viscosity of polymer B (ML 1+10 in the time of 121 ℃) is 38, and comparative polymer B is 73.
Ca (OH) 2 of the MT N990 carbon black of comparative polymer B and 15phr and 6phr is mixing.In mixing process, each component is mixed the beginning heat release, and forms easily crisp sizing material.When MDR tested the control compounds B of gained, the moment of torsion of easy crisp sizing material was brought up to 17dNm from the 3.4dNm of beginning in 30 seconds, and continues to be elevated to 20dNm in 10 minutes when at 177 ℃.
It is mixing that polymer B uses the additive identical with contrasting sizing material B to carry out.Each component is blended in and remains the viscosity sheet in the mill, and it raises less than 1.1dNm at 8 minutes internal torques on 177 ℃ MDR.
These results show that the reactivity of sizing material of the present invention when adding basic component such as acid acceptor is obviously lower.Even it is also apparent when there is not the sulfide site component in this species diversity in sizing material.
