The invention provides a laminate including a fluoroelastomer layer and a fluororesin layer which are firmly bonded to each other. The laminate includes a fluoroelastomer layer (A) and a fluororesin layer (B) stacked on the fluoroelastomer layer (A). The fluoroelastomer layer (A) is a layer formed from a fluoroelastomer composition. The fluoroelastomer composition contains a fluoroelastomer, a basic multifunctional compound, and at least one compound (a) selected from the group consisting of a fluororesin (a1) and a phosphorus compound (a2). The compound (a) is present in an amount of 0.01 to 120 parts by mass relative to 100 parts by mass of the fluoroelastomer. The fluororesin layer (B) is formed from a fluororesin (b1) having a fuel permeability coefficient of 2.0 g&#xb7;mm/m/day or lower.

Laminate

A laminate including: a rubber layer (A); and a fluororesin layer (B) laminated on the rubber layer (A), the rubber layer (A) being formed of a rubber composition for vulcanization containing: at least one unvulcanized rubber (a1) selected from acrylonitrile-butadiene rubber and its hydride, styrene-butadiene rubber, chloroprene rubber, butadiene rubber, natural rubber, isoprene rubber, ethylene-propylene-termonomer-copolymer rubber, silicone rubber, butyl rubber, and acrylic rubber; at least one compound (a2) selected from 1,8-diazabicyclo(5.4.0)undec-7-ene salts, 1,5-diazabicyclo(4.3.0)-non-5-ene salts, 1,8-diazabicyclo(5.4.0)undec-7-ene, and 1,5-diazabicyclo(4.3.0)-non-5-ene; at least one compound (a3) selected from aldehyde-amine compounds and metal hydrates; magnesium oxide (a4); and silica (a5), the fluororesin layer (B) being formed of a fluoropolymer composition containing a fluoropolymer (b1) having a copolymer unit derived from chlorotrifluoroethylene.

The invention provides a laminate in which a fluororesin layer and a rubber layer are firmly bonded to each other and the fluororesin layer has low fuel permeability and is less likely to suffer solvent cracking. The laminate includes a rubber layer (A) and a fluororesin layer (B). The fluororesin layer (B) contains a copolymer containing a chlorotrifluoroethylene unit, a tetrafluoroethylene unit, and a perfluoroalkyl vinyl ether unit. The copolymer contains 96.0 to 97.4 mol % of the chlorotrifluoroethylene unit and the tetrafluoroethylene unit relative to all the monomer units constituting the copolymer and 2.6 to 4.0 mol % of the perfluoroalkyl vinyl ether unit relative to all the monomer units constituting the copolymer.

Laminate and copolymer

A laminate including: a rubber layer (A); and a fluororesin layer (B) laminated on the rubber layer (A), the rubber layer (A) being formed of a rubber composition for vulcanization containing: at least one unvulcanized rubber (a1) selected from acrylonitrile-butadiene rubber and its hydride, styrene-butadiene rubber, chloroprene rubber, butadiene rubber, natural rubber, isoprene rubber, ethylene-propylene-termonomer-copolymer rubber, silicone rubber, butyl rubber, and acrylic rubber; at least one compound (a2) selected from 1,8-diazabicyclo(5.4.0)undec-7-ene salts, 1,5-diazabicyclo(4.3.0)-non-5-ene salts, 1,8-diazabicyclo(5.4.0)undec-7-ene, and 1,5-diazabicyclo(4.3.0)-non-5-ene; at least one compound (a3) selected from dithiocarbamic acid copper salts, aldehyde-amine compounds, and metal hydrates; magnesium oxide (a4); and silica (a5), the fluororesin layer (B) being formed of a fluoropolymer composition containing a fluoropolymer (b1) having a copolymer unit derived from chlorotrifluoroethylene.

A laminate of a rubber layer (A) and a fluororesin layer (B) on the rubber layer (A), wherein the rubber layer (A) is a layer made of a rubber composition for vulcanization, the rubber composition for vulcanization contains an unvulcanized rubber (a1); at least one compound (a2) selected from the group consisting of a 1,8-diazabicyclo(5.4.0)undec-7-ene salt, a 1,5-diazabicyclo(4.3.0)-non-5-ene salt, 1,8-diazabicyclo(5.4.0)undec-7-ene, and 1,5-diazabicyclo(4.3.0)-non-5-ene; magnesium oxide (a3); and silica (a4), the amount of the compound (a2) is larger than 1.0 part by mass and not larger than 5.0 parts by mass, for each 100 parts by mass of the unvulcanized rubber (a1), the fluororesin layer (B) is a layer made of a fluoropolymer composition, and the fluoropolymer composition contains a fluoropolymer (b1) having a copolymer unit derived from chlorotrifluoroethylene.
