Description

Succinic Acid 1-(2,2,3,3,4,4,5,5,6,6,7,7-Dodecafluoroheptyl)4-Ethyl Ester is a highly fluorinated succinate derivative engineered for advanced material science applications. This compound matters for its unique combination of a polar succinate core with a highly fluorinated alkyl chain, imparting exceptional chemical resistance, thermal stability, and low surface energy properties. It is primarily needed by R&D and production teams in the fluoropolymer modification, specialty surfactants, and high-performance coatings sectors seeking to enhance material performance.

Application

• Fluoropolymer Additive & Modifier: Acts as a compatibilizer or processing aid to improve the dispersion of fillers or the surface properties of fluoropolymers like PTFE, PVDF, and FEP.
• Specialty Surfactant & Leveling Agent: Used in formulations for fire-fighting foams, coatings, and electronics where extreme chemical and thermal resistance is required.
• High-Performance Lubricant & Release Agent: Serves as a base or additive in lubricants for harsh environments and as a mold release agent for high-temperature polymer processing.
• Surface Treatment for Textiles & Membranes: Imparts oil- and water-repellent (omniphobic) characteristics to fibers, filters, and porous materials.
• Intermediate for Pharmaceutical & Agrochemistry: Used in the synthesis of more complex fluorinated active ingredients or prodrugs requiring specific lipophilicity and metabolic stability.
• Electronics & Semiconductor Industry: Potential application as a precursor or additive in dielectric fluids, heat transfer liquids, or resist materials.

Quality Control

Our production of Succinic Acid 1-(2,2,3,3,4,4,5,5,6,6,7,7-Dodecafluoroheptyl)4-Ethyl Ester adheres to a strict quality management system. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including HPLC for purity and identity confirmation (NMR, IR), to ensure it meets precise customer specifications. Comprehensive Certificates of Analysis (COA) documenting all critical parameters are available upon request, supporting your quality assurance and regulatory compliance needs.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area at controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Keep away from heat, sparks, and open flame. This material is sensitive to fluoride/strong alkali. Ensure the container is kept tightly sealed to prevent moisture absorption and contamination.
