Description

Methyl Perfluoropentadecanoate CAS NO 203303-00-8 is a high-purity, fully fluorinated long-chain methyl ester, characterized by its exceptional chemical and thermal stability derived from its perfluorinated carbon backbone. This compound serves as a critical intermediate and performance additive in advanced material science, where its unique fluorinated properties are highly valued. It is primarily sought after by manufacturers in the specialty chemical, surface treatment, and high-performance polymer industries for applications requiring extreme hydrophobicity, oleophobicity, and resistance to harsh environments.

Application

• Fluorinated Polymer Synthesis: A key monomer or intermediate for producing high-performance fluoropolymers and fluoroelastomers with enhanced chemical resistance and low surface energy.
• Surface Modifiers & Coatings: Used to create ultra-durable water- and oil-repellent (omniphobic) coatings for textiles, electronics, and optical components.
• Specialty Surfactants & Additives: Acts as a precursor for fluorinated surfactants and additives used in demanding formulations like fire-fighting foams, lubricants, and specialty inks.
• Pharmaceutical & AgroChemical Intermediates: Serves as a building block in the synthesis of fluorinated active ingredients, leveraging the fluorine atom's ability to modulate bioavailability and metabolic stability.
• Material Science Research: Employed in R&D for developing novel fluorinated materials, including liquid crystals, electrolytes, and nanostructured surfaces.
