Description

2-Carboxyethylbis(2-Hydroxyethyl)-3-[(2,2,3,3,4,4,5,5,6,6,7,7,8,8,8-Pentadecafluoro-1-Oxooctyl)Amino]Propylammonium Hydroxide is a specialized fluorinated ammonium hydroxide derivative engineered for high-performance surface modification. This compound is valued for its unique molecular architecture, which combines a strongly hydrophilic, cationic ammonium head with a long, highly fluorinated hydrophobic tail, imparting exceptional surface-active properties. It is primarily utilized in advanced material science and specialty chemical synthesis where durable, low-surface-energy characteristics and chemical resistance are paramount.

Application

• As a key fluorosurfactant and leveling agent in high-performance fluoropolymer coatings and paints.
• In the formulation of oil- and water-repellent finishes for textiles, leather, and paper.
• As a surface modifier and compatibilizer in the production of fluorinated elastomers and plastics.
• For creating anti-fog and anti-stain coatings on optical lenses and electronic displays.
• As a critical intermediate in the synthesis of specialty fluorinated quaternary ammonium compounds.
• In research and development of novel biomaterials requiring specific surface energy control.
• Potential use as an additive in fire-fighting foams (subject to regulatory compliance).
• As a processing aid and release agent in advanced composite manufacturing.

Quality Control

Our production of this fluorinated specialty chemical adheres to strict quality management systems. Every batch is characterized using advanced analytical techniques including NMR, HPLC, and titration to ensure identity, purity, and consistency. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing assay, impurity profile, and physical properties is provided with each shipment. We support compliance with relevant global chemical regulations, including REACH.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). This material is hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) and contains a strong alkali; containers must be kept tightly sealed to prevent absorption of atmospheric moisture and carbon dioxide. Store away from incompatible materials such as strong acids.
