Described herein is a melt-processible polymer composition comprising: a non-fluorinated melt-processible polymer; and a fluoropolymer derived from the polymerization of a monomer and a sulfinate-containing molecule, wherein the sulfinate-containing molecule is selected from the group consisting of: (a)CX 1 X 3 =CX 2 -(R) p -CZ 1 Z 2 -SO 2 M Formula (I) (b) Formula (II); and (c) combinations thereof, wherein X 1 , X 2 , and X 3 are each independently selected from H, F, Cl, a C 1 to C 4 alkyl group, and a C 1 to C 4 fluorinated alkyl group; R is a linking group; Z 1 and Z 2 are independently selected from F, CF 3 , and a perfluoroalkyl group; R 1 and R 2 are end-groups; p is 0 or 1; m is at least 2; and M is a cation. |
