A fluororubber composition that is a kneaded mixture of a carbon nanotube masterbatch comprising 4 to 20 parts by weight of multilayer carbon nanotubes, which are fibrous carbon nanostructures that do not contain monolayer carbon nanotubes, based on 100 parts by weight of a fluororubber polymer, and a fluororubber raw material comprising at least a fluororubber polymer and a reinforcing filler, in which the multilayer carbon nanotubes are compounded in an amount of 0.5 to 6 wt. % in the kneaded mixture. The kneading is performed using a roll or a kneader when the fluororubber composition is produced. The fluororubber composition can provide a fluororubber crosslinked molded article that exhibits abrasion resistance and blister resistance.

The invention relates to polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) copolymer compositions that have improved crosslinking efficiency and performance. The PVDF copolymer contains a high level (>14 and preferably greater than 16 wt %) of a fluorinated comonomer, and has a high molecular weight as measured by the melt viscosity at 230° C. and 100 sec−1 of 18 to 40 kpoise. The composition can be effectively cross-linked with a low level radiation (high cross-linking efficiency). The cross-linked composition is useful in high-temperature applications, such as automotive wire and cable, and heat shrink tubing.
