Description

Heptadecafluoro-n-(4-Hydroxybutyl)-n-Methyloctanesulphonamide is a high-performance fluorinated sulfonamide derivative, valued for its unique combination of surface activity, chemical resistance, and functional hydroxyl group. This compound matters because it provides exceptional hydrophobicity, oleophobicity, and stability, making it a critical intermediate for advanced material formulations. It is primarily needed by manufacturers in the coatings, polymer, and specialty surfactant industries seeking to enhance product performance and durability.

Application

• Key intermediate for synthesizing high-performance fluorinated surfactants and leveling agents.
• Building block for oil- and water-repellent coatings on textiles, leather, and paper.
• Modifier for polymers to impart chemical resistance and low surface energy properties.
• Raw material in the formulation of fire-fighting foams (AFFF) and specialty lubricants.
• Used in the development of anti-fogging and anti-reflective coatings for optical applications.
• Functional additive for inks and coatings requiring improved substrate wetting and flow.
