Description

n-Ethyl-n-[(Undecafluoropentyl)Sulphonyl]Glycine CAS NO 68957-31-3 is a specialized fluorinated surfactant and intermediate characterized by its unique perfluorinated alkyl chain linked to a glycine moiety. This molecular structure imparts exceptional surface activity, chemical stability, and oil/water repellency, making it a high-value functional additive for advanced material formulations. It is primarily utilized in industries requiring enhanced performance coatings, fire-fighting foams, and specialty chemical synthesis where fluorinated properties are critical.

Application

• Fluorinated Surfactant in Fire-Fighting Foams (AFFF): Key component for generating stable, fast-spreading aqueous film-forming foams effective on hydrocarbon fuel fires.
• Surface Modifier for Coatings and Textiles: Imparts oil, water, and stain repellency to industrial fabrics, carpets, and protective coatings.
• Intermediate for Specialty Chemical Synthesis: Serves as a building block for synthesizing more complex fluorinated compounds used in pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals.
• Additive in Polymer and Resin Systems: Enhances wetting, leveling, and dispersion properties in high-performance fluoropolymer formulations.
• Electroplating and Metal Treatment Baths: Used as a wetting agent to reduce surface tension and improve plating uniformity.
• Research & Development: Employed in academic and industrial R&D for studying fluorocarbon chemistry and developing novel materials.
