Food cooking belts and textile belts containing a woven reinforcement, a fluoropolymer, and an interpenetrating network of either a non-fluorinated thermoplastic or a non-fluorinated thermosetting polymer have improved wear resistance, better adhesion to the glass reinforcement, and improved puncture resistance. The non-fluorinated thermoplastic or thermoset is composed of a thermally stable polymer which is stable at temperatures at continuous operating temperatures of 200 °C (500 °F). |
