Description

2-(Perfluoro-7-Methyloctyl)Ethyl Methacrylate is a specialized fluorinated methacrylate monomer, a key building block for imparting unique surface properties to polymers. Its value lies in the introduction of a highly fluorinated side chain, which provides exceptional oil and water repellency, chemical resistance, and low surface energy. This product is essential for manufacturers in the advanced coatings, specialty textiles, and high-performance materials sectors seeking to develop products with superior non-stick and protective characteristics.

Application

• Fluorinated Polymer Synthesis: A critical monomer for producing side-chain fluorinated acrylic and methacrylic polymers (fluoropolymers) with tailored properties.
• Advanced Surface Coatings: Used to formulate high-performance coatings for textiles, optics, and electronics that require stain, oil, and water resistance.
• Low Surface Energy Materials: Imparts anti-fouling and easy-clean properties to surfaces in marine, automotive, and architectural applications.
• Specialty Additives: Serves as a key ingredient in surface modifiers and additives for enhancing the performance of inks, lubricants, and release agents.
• Research & Development: Employed in academic and industrial R&D for creating novel fluorinated materials with specific functional characteristics.

Quality Control

Our production of 2-(Perfluoro-7-Methyloctyl)Ethyl Methacrylate adheres to stringent quality protocols to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and high purity. Each lot is analyzed using advanced techniques including Gas Chromatography (GC) and Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) to verify identity, assay, and impurity profiles. Certificates of Analysis (COA) detailing all specifications are provided with every shipment to support your quality assurance and regulatory compliance needs.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated place at room temperature (15-25°C). Keep away from strong acids, bases, and sources of ignition. Due to its reactivity as a methacrylate monomer, it is recommended to store under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen) and use appropriate inhibitors as supplied to prevent premature polymerization.
