| abstract |
The present invention comprises a substrate having a fluoropolymer on at least one of its surfaces wherein one of the substrates or the fluoropolymer comprises a hydride function MH wherein M is Si, Ge, Sn or Pb. The invention further comprises articles comprising the substrate and fluoropolymer; a method of bonding the fluoropolymer to the substrate; a fluoropolymer composition that contains the fluoropolymer, a polyhydroxy cure composition, and an organic composition comprising the hydride function MH; a premix that contains the fluoropolymer and the hydride function MH; and a fluoropolymer composition that comprises (a) a thermoplastic fluoropolymer comprising Cl, Brand/or I atoms and (b) an organic compound that comprises the hydride function MH. |
