Description

3-(Perfluoro-5-Methylhexyl)-2-Hydroxypropyl Acrylate is a specialized fluorinated acrylate 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 makes it essential for manufacturers in the coatings, textiles, and specialty materials sectors seeking to develop high-performance, durable surface treatments.

Application

This fluorinated acrylate monomer is engineered for advanced material science applications where surface modification is critical. Its primary uses include:

• Fluorinated Polymer Synthesis: As a co-monomer for creating acrylic and methacrylic polymers with permanent stain, oil, and water repellency.
• High-Performance Coatings: Formulating anti-graffiti, anti-fouling, and easy-clean protective coatings for architectural, automotive, and industrial surfaces.
• Textile & Fiber Treatment: Manufacturing durable water repellent (DWR) finishes for technical textiles, outdoor apparel, and upholstery.
• Paper & Packaging Coatings: Creating grease-resistant and moisture-barrier coatings for food packaging and specialty papers.
• Optical & Electronic Materials: Modifying surface properties of films and components where low adhesion and contamination resistance are required.
• Adhesive & Sealant Modifiers: Imparting release properties or chemical resistance to pressure-sensitive adhesives and sealants.

Quality Control

Our production of 3-(Perfluoro-5-Methylhexyl)-2-Hydroxypropyl Acrylate adheres to stringent quality management protocols. Every batch is analyzed to ensure consistency in purity, composition, and performance characteristics. Certificates of Analysis (COA) detailing key specifications such as assay, identity, and impurity profiles are provided and available upon request to support your quality assurance and regulatory needs.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated place at room temperature (15-25°C). Keep away from strong acids, bases, and sources of ignition. Due to its acrylic functionality and light-sensitive nature, prolonged exposure to heat, light, or air should be avoided to maintain product stability. Keep container tightly sealed when not in use.
