The invention relates to fluoropolymer composites having a fluoropolymer matrix containing a functionalized fluoropolymer composition, and reinforced with fibers. The fibers can be chopped fibers, long fibers, or a mixture thereof, and the fluoropolymer matrix preferably is based on polyvinylidene fluoride. Any type of fibers, sized or unsized may be used with the functionalized fluoropolymer matrix composition to form the fluoropolymer composite.

The present disclosure provides a composition. In an embodiment, the composition is an ethylene-based polymer composition formed by high pressure (greater or equal to 100 MPa) free radical polymerization. The ethylene-based polymer composition includes ethylene monomer and a mixture of hydroxyl-terminated polybutadiene molecules (PB-OH). Each PB-OH molecule includes internal alkene groups and terminal alkene groups. Each PB-OH molecule has more internal alkene groups than terminal alkene groups.

Disclosed is a method of preparing a vinyl cyanide compound-conjugated diene rubber-aromatic vinyl compound graft copolymer, a method of preparing a thermoplastic resin composition including the same, and a thermoplastic resin composition including the same. More specifically, when a conjugated diene compound and a molecular weight regulator are fed in a split manner during polymerization of conjugated diene rubber, and the content of an emulsifier is reduced, gel content may be reduced. In addition, when enlarged conjugated diene-based rubber latex is prepared by enlarging conjugated diene-based rubber latex using an acid enlarging agent, the enlarged conjugated diene-based rubber latex may have an expanded full width at half maximum in particle size distribution, thereby improving gloss, reflection haze, fluidity, and impact resistance. In addition, deposits may be reduced during injection molding.

Vulcanizates with desirable properties such as reduced hysteresis and improved wear resistance can be obtained from a composition that includes particulate filler(s) and at least two types of terminally functionalized polymers. One type of polymer has a heterocyclic moiety at a terminus, while another type has at one of its termini an aryl group that includes at least two hydroxyl substituents. The functionalized polymers are provided by reacting terminally active polymers with, respectively, a heterocyclic nitrile and a compound that includes an aryl group having at least two directly bonded OG.sub.p substituents, where G.sub.p is a protecting group, and a substituent that can react with the active terminus. The protecting groups can be removed so as to provide a terminal moiety that includes an aryl group having at least two directly bonded hydroxyl groups.
