| abstract |
A bisphenol compound represented by the following general formula: ##STR1## where R is an alkylene group having 1 to 5 carbon atoms, an alkylidene group having 1 to 5 carbon atoms, a perfluoroalkylene group having 1 to 5 carbon atoms, a perfluoroalkylidene group having 1 to 5 carbon atoms, a SO 2 group or an O group; and R 1 , R 2 , R 3 and R 4 are the same or different alkyl groups, alkenyl groups, aryl groups, alkylaryl groups or aralkyl groups, each having 1 to 25 carbon atoms, can give vulcanization products having a good resistance to hot water, when used as a cross-linking agent for terpolymers of tetrafluoroethylene/perfluoro (alkyl vinyl ether)/ethylenically unsaturated cure site monomer. |
