Description

trans-Perfluorodecalin CAS NO 60433-12-7 is a fully fluorinated, saturated cyclic hydrocarbon known for its exceptional chemical and biological inertness, high density, and outstanding oxygen-dissolving capacity. This unique combination of properties makes it an indispensable material in advanced medical and industrial applications where stability and performance under demanding conditions are critical. It is primarily sought by manufacturers and researchers in the pharmaceutical, biomedical, and specialty electronics sectors.

Application

• Oxygen Carrier in Blood Substitutes and Perfusion Fluids: A key component in temporary oxygen-carrying therapeutic emulsions (e.g., second-generation perfluorocarbon-based oxygen carriers).
• Contrast Agent for Diagnostic Imaging: Used in ultrasound imaging and as a component in formulations for magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) enhancement.
• Liquid Ventilation Media: Employed in partial liquid ventilation for treating acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) due to its high oxygen and carbon dioxide solubility.
• Reaction Medium and Solvent: Serves as an inert, non-polar solvent for specialized organic synthesis, polymerization, and catalysis, particularly where oxidative or reactive conditions are present.
• Electronic Fluid for Heat Transfer and Testing: Utilized in the electronics industry for direct cooling of components and as a dielectric testing fluid due to its thermal stability and electrical properties.
• Cosmetics and Personal Care: Acts as a spreading agent and oxygen transporter in high-end skincare formulations.
• Laboratory Research: Used as a standard reference material and a model compound in studies of fluorocarbon chemistry and biomedical applications.
