Notes:
Viton® GLT is a new low-temperature fluoroelastomer with a Tg near -40°C. A study was made on methods of Crosslinking this material while retaining its transparency. Combinations of trimethylolpropane trimethacrylate, TMPTM, and triallyl isocyanurate, Diak® #7, were milled into Viton GLT. After molding, the materials were exposed to electron-irradiation, cross-linking the material. Transparent, tough materials were obtained for compositions containing about 3 percent TMPTM/3 percent Diak #7/3 Mrads, which had an extension of over 100 percent, a tensile strength of over 1000 PSI, excellent clarity, and low surface tack.
