Description

2-(Perfluoro-3-Methylbutyl)Ethyl Methacrylate is a high-performance fluorinated methacrylate monomer, distinguished by its unique perfluoroalkyl side chain. This structure is critical for imparting exceptional oil and water repellency, chemical resistance, and low surface energy to polymer coatings and materials. It is an essential building block for advanced material scientists and formulators in industries requiring durable, high-performance surface modifications. The compound is primarily utilized in the development of specialty polymers for demanding applications where standard acrylates fall short.

Application

• Fluorinated Polymer Synthesis: A key monomer for creating acrylic polymers with permanent, low surface energy for use in coatings, sealants, and adhesives.
• Oil & Water Repellent Finishes: Used to formulate advanced textile treatments, protective clothing, and non-stick fabric coatings.
• Anti-fouling & Release Coatings: Essential for marine paints, mold release agents, and coatings for industrial equipment to prevent adhesion of contaminants.
• Electronics & Optics: Employed in the production of low-refractive-index claddings for optical fibers and protective coatings for electronic components.
• High-Performance Additives: Serves as a modifier to enhance the chemical and stain resistance of paints, inks, and industrial finishes.
• Specialty Elastomers: Incorporated into fluorinated rubber and elastomer formulations to improve solvent and fuel resistance.

Quality Control

Our production of 2-(Perfluoro-3-Methylbutyl)Ethyl Methacrylate adheres to stringent quality management protocols to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and high purity. Each lot is analyzed using advanced techniques including Gas Chromatography (GC) and NMR to verify identity, assay, and impurity profiles. We provide comprehensive Certificates of Analysis (COA) with every shipment, detailing all critical specifications. Our quality system is designed to support customers in industries with rigorous material qualification requirements.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated place at temperatures between 2°C and 8°C (refrigerated) to maximize shelf life and inhibit premature polymerization. Keep away from heat, sparks, open flames, and incompatible materials such as strong acids, bases, and peroxides. Allow the container to reach ambient temperature before opening to prevent moisture condensation.
