Description

2,2,3,3,4,4,5,5-Octafluoro-1,6-Hexyl Dimethacrylate is a highly fluorinated methacrylate monomer that imparts exceptional chemical resistance, low surface energy, and enhanced hydrophobicity to polymer systems. This compound is critical for developing advanced materials where standard acrylates fall short in harsh environments. It is primarily sought by R&D and production teams in the specialty polymer, coatings, and electronics industries for creating high-performance, durable products.

Application

• Fluoropolymer Synthesis: A key monomer for producing high-performance fluorinated polymers and copolymers with superior chemical and thermal stability.
• Specialty Coatings & Inks: Used to formulate release coatings, non-stick surfaces, and protective layers that are resistant to solvents, acids, and weathering.
• Optical Fiber Cladding: Imparts low refractive index and excellent environmental protection for advanced optical communication fibers.
• Lithography & Photoresists: Serves as a component in high-resolution photoresists for semiconductor manufacturing, leveraging its etch resistance.
• Adhesives & Sealants: Enhances the durability and environmental resistance of high-performance adhesive formulations.
• Hydrophobic/Oleophobic Surface Modification: Used to graft fluorinated chains onto surfaces to create water- and oil-repellent properties.

Quality Control

Our 2,2,3,3,4,4,5,5-Octafluoro-1,6-Hexyl Dimethacrylate is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including chromatography and spectroscopy, to ensure high purity and consistency. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing purity, identity, and impurity profiles is provided with every shipment to support your quality assurance and regulatory needs.

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, and open flame. The monomer is sensitive to strong acids and organic solvents; ensure storage areas are segregated from incompatible materials.
