A composition includes a first amorphous fluoropolymer having a first Mooney viscosity ML 1+10 @ 121 C. less than 60 and a second amorphous fluoropolymer having a second Mooney viscosity ML 1+10 @ 121 C. greater than 80. The composition further includes at least one of a non-fluorinated, thermoplastic polymer as a major component of the composition or a polymer processing additive synergist. A method of reducing melt defects during the extrusion of a polymer is also provided. Use of a combination of the first and second amorphous fluoropolymers as a polymer processing additive is also provided.

The resin composition of the present invention comprises a prepolymer (P) and a thermosetting component, the prepolymer (P) being obtained by polymerizing an alkenyl-substituted nadimide (A), a maleimide compound (B), and an amino-modified silicone (C).

A core-shell filament useful for fused filament fabrication includes a core, and a shell surrounding and in contact with the core. The core contains a block polyetherimide-polysiloxane. The shell contains a polyetherimide. When the filament is used in fused filament fabrication for printing a three-dimensional article, the core material remains surrounded by shell material. So, the printed article exhibits good interlayer adhesion provided by the shell material, and good ductility provided by the core material.
