Abstract
A multi-layer article comprises a substantially non-fluorinated layer, and a fluorinated layer of fluoropolymer comprising interpolymerized monomeric units derived from one or more of hexafluoropropylene and tetrafluoroethylene monomers, one or more non-fluorinated olefinically unsaturated monomer, and substantially no vinylidene fluoride monomer. The multi-layer article further comprises an aliphatic di-, or polyamine which provides increased adhesion between the layers as compared to a multi-layer article not containing the aliphatic di-, or polyamine. The multi-layer article can be prepared by mixing the aliphatic di-, or polyamine into the substantially non-fluorinated polymeric material, or by applying the aliphatic di-, or polyamine to a surface of one or more of the substantially non-fluorinated polymeric material or the fluoropolymer, and thereafter preparing a multi-layer article.
