Description

2-(Perfluoroalkyl)Ethyl Methacrylate is a specialized fluorinated monomer designed to impart exceptional surface properties to polymers. This compound matters for its ability to confer high levels of hydrophobicity, oleophobicity, and chemical resistance to coatings and materials. Industries requiring advanced performance materials, such as high-performance coatings, textile finishing, and specialty adhesives, rely on this monomer to achieve critical functional characteristics.

Application

• Fluorinated Polymer Synthesis: A key building block for creating acrylic polymers with perfluoroalkyl side chains, essential for surface-modifying additives.
• Oil & Water Repellent Coatings: Used in formulations for textiles, leather, paper, and non-woven fabrics to provide durable stain and liquid resistance.
• Anti-fouling & Release Coatings: Applied in marine paints, cookware, and mold release agents where low surface energy is critical.
• Specialty Adhesives and Sealants: Imparts chemical inertness and weatherability to high-performance bonding systems.
• Optical and Electronic Materials: Utilized in the production of fluorinated resins for optical fibers and electronic encapsulants due to low moisture absorption and refractive index tuning.
• Modifier for Acrylic Resins: Enhances the properties of standard acrylics for applications in automotive, aerospace, and architectural coatings.

Quality Control

Our 2-(Perfluoroalkyl)Ethyl Methacrylate is produced under stringent quality management systems. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including assay by GC or HPLC and determination of key impurities, to ensure consistency and performance. Certificates of Analysis (COA) detailing purity, identity, and specific properties are provided with every shipment to guarantee supply reliability and quality assurance for your formulations.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated place at temperatures between 2°C and 8°C (refrigerated) to minimize polymerization risk and reduce volatility. Keep away from heat, sparks, and open flame. Due to its nature as a strong acid/organic solvent and highly volatile compound, ensure containers are sealed when not in use and stored separately from incompatible materials.
