Description

Poly(Oxy-1,2-Ethanediyl), .Alpha.-2-Ethyl(Tridecafluorohexyl)Sulfonylaminoethyl-.Omega.-Hydroxy- CAS NO 56372-23-7 is a specialized fluorinated surfactant and surface modifier belonging to the class of perfluoroalkyl ether sulfonamido ethoxylates. Its unique molecular structure, featuring a long perfluorinated chain linked to a hydrophilic polyoxyethylene segment, provides exceptional surface activity and stability in demanding environments. This compound is essential for industries requiring advanced wetting, leveling, and anti-foaming properties in complex formulations.

Application

• Firefighting Foams (AFFF): As a key fluorosurfactant component for generating stable, fast-spreading aqueous film-forming foams to combat hydrocarbon fuel fires.
• Coating & Paint Additives: To improve wetting, leveling, and flow control in high-performance fluoropolymer coatings, paints, and inks, reducing surface defects.
• Electronic Chemicals: As a surfactant in photoresist strippers, etching solutions, and cleaning formulations for semiconductor and PCB manufacturing, where chemical inertness is critical.
• Oil & Gas Production Chemicals: Used in formulations for enhanced oil recovery, as a friction reducer, or as a component in anti-misting agents for drilling fluids.
• Specialty Cleaning & Polishing Agents: Provides superior wetting and soil release in aggressive, acid-based industrial cleaners and metal polishes.
• Textile & Leather Treatment: Imparts oil, water, and stain repellency to fabrics and leather goods as a durable fluorochemical finish.
