Description

3-Perfluorohexyl-2-Hydroxypropyl Methacrylate is a specialized fluorinated methacrylate monomer, a key building block for imparting unique surface properties to advanced polymers. This compound is valued for its ability to introduce low surface energy, oleophobicity, and chemical resistance into polymer chains. It is essential for R&D and production in industries such as high-performance coatings, specialty adhesives, and advanced material science, where durable, low-friction, and easy-to-clean surfaces are required.

Application

• Fluorinated Polymer Synthesis: A critical monomer for creating polymers with exceptional oil, water, and stain repellency.
• High-Performance Coatings: Used in formulating anti-graffiti, anti-fouling, and protective coatings for textiles, optics, and architectural surfaces.
• Specialty Adhesives & Sealants: Imparts chemical resistance and durability to adhesives used in harsh environments.
• Surface Modifiers & Additives: Acts as an additive to modify surface properties of existing polymers, enhancing release characteristics.
• Biomedical Materials: Investigated for use in creating biocompatible surfaces with low protein adsorption for medical devices.
• Electronics & Microfabrication: Employed in photoresists and protective layers due to its chemical inertness and stability.

Quality Control

Our 3-Perfluorohexyl-2-Hydroxypropyl Methacrylate is manufactured under strict quality protocols. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including HPLC for purity and identity confirmation by NMR and FTIR, to ensure it meets precise specifications for fluorinated monomer applications. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing purity, assay, and impurity profiles is provided with every shipment to guarantee consistency and support your quality assurance processes.

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 monomer stability. Keep away from strong acids, bases, and oxidizing agents. Allow the container to reach room temperature before opening to prevent moisture condensation.
