Description

Propanoic Acid,2,3,3,3-Tetrafluoro-2-[1,1,2,3,3,3-Hexafluoro-2-(1,1,2,2,3,3,3-Heptafluoropropoxy)Propoxy]-,Ammonium Salt (1:1) is a highly fluorinated ammonium carboxylate salt, a specialty chemical designed for demanding performance applications. Its complex perfluoropolyether (PFPE) structure provides exceptional chemical and thermal stability, along with unique surface-active properties. This compound is primarily utilized in advanced material science and high-performance industrial formulations where standard organic salts are insufficient.

Application

• As a key surfactant or emulsifier in the formulation of specialized fluorinated polymers and coatings.
• In the production of fire-fighting foams (AFFF) and other fluorosurfactant-based fire suppression agents.
• As a surface treatment agent to impart oil, water, and stain repellency to textiles, paper, and other substrates.
• As an additive in lubricants and greases for extreme temperature and chemical resistance.
• In the electronics industry for use in specialized etching baths or as a component in photoresist formulations.
• As a processing aid or intermediate in the synthesis of other complex fluorinated compounds.
• For research and development of novel fluorinated materials with specific dielectric or non-stick properties.

Quality Control

Our production of this fluorinated specialty chemical adheres to strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including assay by titration or HPLC, to ensure high purity and consistent performance. Certificates of Analysis (COA) detailing batch-specific results are provided with every shipment. We are committed to meeting the stringent requirements of our industrial and research partners.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area at room temperature (15-25°C). This material is hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive); containers must be kept tightly sealed to prevent absorption of atmospheric moisture, which can affect product quality and performance.
