Description

Methyl Perfluorotetradecanoate is a high-purity, long-chain perfluorinated ester with a fully fluorinated carbon backbone. This compound is valued for its exceptional chemical and thermal stability, low surface energy, and pronounced hydrophobic and oleophobic properties. It serves as a critical intermediate and performance additive for advanced material science and specialty chemical synthesis across industries such as fluoropolymer production, surface modification, and high-performance lubricants.

Application

• Fluoropolymer and Fluorosurfactant Synthesis: A key monomer or intermediate for creating high-performance polymers and surface-active agents.
• Surface Modification & Coatings: Imparts water, oil, and stain repellency to textiles, paper, and non-woven materials.
• Specialty Lubricants and Greases: Used as an additive to enhance thermal stability and reduce friction in extreme environments.
• Electronic and Semiconductor Industry: Employed in the formulation of protective coatings for sensitive components.
• Fire-Fighting Foams (Legacy/Formulation R&D): Historical use as a component in aqueous film-forming foams (AFFF); relevant for research and specific compliant formulations.
• Chemical Research & Development: Serves as a building block for novel fluorinated compounds in academic and industrial R&D.
