Description

9H-Perfluorononanoyl Bromide is a high-purity, reactive perfluorinated acyl bromide intermediate essential for introducing perfluorononyl groups into target molecules. Its primary value lies in enabling the synthesis of advanced fluorinated materials with exceptional chemical resistance, thermal stability, and low surface energy properties. This compound is critically needed by R&D chemists and process engineers in the pharmaceutical, agrochemical, and specialty polymer industries for developing novel surfactants, coatings, and active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs).

Application

• Fluorinated Surfactant & Polymer Synthesis: A key building block for creating perfluorononyl-containing surfactants and high-performance fluoropolymers.
• Pharmaceutical Intermediate: Used in the research and development of fluorinated drug candidates to enhance metabolic stability and bioavailability.
• Agrochemical Active Ingredients: Employed in the synthesis of novel fluorinated pesticides and herbicides with improved efficacy and environmental profile.
• Specialty Coatings & Additives: Serves as a precursor for agents that impart oil, water, and stain repellency to textiles, papers, and coatings.
• Material Science Research: Facilitates the development of new fluorinated liquid crystals, electrolytes, and other advanced materials.
• Surface Modification: Used to graft perfluorononyl chains onto various substrates to drastically alter surface properties.

Quality Control

Every batch of 9H-Perfluorononanoyl Bromide is manufactured and tested under a strict quality management system. We guarantee high chemical purity and consistency, with comprehensive testing including assay, identity confirmation, and impurity profiling. A Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing all specifications and results is provided with each shipment to ensure full traceability and compliance with your research or production requirements.

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). This material is hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) and should be handled under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) to prevent decomposition. Keep away from strong bases and oxidizing agents.
