The invention relates to a fluorinated copolymers which are particularly based on vinylidene fluoride (VDF) or trifluoroethylene (TrFE) and particularly functionalized by functional and/or functionizable vinyl ethers. The invention also relates to methods for producing said copolymers, and to the applications thereof.

The present invention is a paint composition containing (A) a fluorine-containing copolymer, (B) a solvent and (C) a resin particle satisfying the following conditions 1 to 5:

condition 1: an average particle size of the resin particle is 0.1 to 50 m;
condition 2: a refractive index of the resin particle at 20 C. is 0.8 to 1.2 times that of a film composed of the fluorine-containing copolymer (A) at 20 C.;
condition 3: a 10% compression strength of the resin particle is 40 MPa or less;
condition 4: a compressibility of the resin particle is 20% or more; and
condition 5: the resin particle does not suffer from brittle fracture under a load force of 0.1 mN.

The invention pertains to certain fluoroelastomer compositions comprising an iodine-containing (per)fluoroelastomer of low molecular weight and certain organic peroxides, possessing outstanding cross-linking behaviour at limited temperatures, and yielding resulting final parts exhibiting good mechanical and sealing properties, while avoiding discoloring/degradation phenomena, and enabling easy colour match in a wide range of colours.
