Description

Ethyl Perfluorononanoate is a high-purity, fully fluorinated ester compound, identified by CAS NO 30377-52-7. This specialty chemical is valued for its exceptional chemical and thermal stability, low surface energy, and hydrophobic/oleophobic properties. It serves as a critical intermediate and performance additive for demanding applications in advanced materials science, surface treatment, and specialty polymer synthesis, where standard hydrocarbon-based materials fail.

Application

• Fluorinated Surfactant & Leveling Agent: A key component in high-performance coatings, inks, and fire-fighting foams (AFFF) to reduce surface tension and improve wetting and film formation.
• Intermediate for Fluoropolymers: Used in the synthesis of specialized fluorinated acrylates and methacrylates for water- and oil-repellent surface treatments on textiles, paper, and leather.
• Surface Modification Additive: Imparts release and anti-stick properties to industrial molds, gaskets, and seals when incorporated into elastomers and plastics.
• Electronic Chemicals: Employed as a wetting agent or additive in formulations for electronics cleaning, etching baths, and specialty lubricants for precision equipment.
• Research & Development: A valuable building block in organic and materials chemistry R&D for creating novel fluorinated molecules with tailored properties.
