Description

4-[2,2,3,3,4,4,5,5,6,6,7,7,8,9,9,9-Hexadecafluoro-8-(Trifluoromethyl)Nonyl]-2,2-Dimethyl-1,3-Dioxolane is a high-value, specialty fluorinated acetal derivative, designed to impart exceptional hydrophobicity, oleophobicity, and chemical resistance to advanced materials. Its core value lies in its ability to serve as a key intermediate or functional additive for creating surfaces with low surface energy and high-performance characteristics. This compound is essential for R&D and manufacturing in industries demanding extreme durability and specific surface properties, such as advanced coatings, specialty polymers, and electronics.

Application

• Fluorinated Polymer & Resin Synthesis: As a critical monomer or modifier for producing high-performance fluoropolymers and fluorinated acrylic resins with enhanced weather, chemical, and stain resistance.
• Advanced Surface Coatings: Used to formulate hydrophobic and oleophobic coatings for textiles, optics, electronics, and architectural materials to provide water, oil, and dirt repellency.
• Specialty Additives: Functions as a surface energy modifier and flow aid in high-end lubricants, inks, and mold release agents.
• Electronic Materials: Potential application as a precursor or additive in the development of dielectric materials, encapsulants, or for surface treatment of electronic components.
• Pharmaceutical & AgroChemical Intermediates: Serves as a building block for synthesizing novel fluorinated active ingredients or prodrugs, leveraging the metabolic stability of the fluorine atoms.
• Research & Development: A valuable tool for academic and industrial R&D in organic chemistry, material science, and surface engineering to explore new fluorinated compounds.

Quality Control

Every batch of our fluorinated intermediates is produced under strict quality management systems. We employ advanced analytical techniques including GC, HPLC, NMR, and FTIR to ensure high purity and batch-to-batch consistency. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing identity, purity, and impurity profiles is provided with each shipment to support your quality assurance and regulatory needs.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area at room temperature (15-25°C). This material is moisture-sensitive (hygroscopic); keep the container tightly sealed under an inert atmosphere such as nitrogen or argon to prevent hydrolysis and maintain stability.
