Description

4-Oxo-4-[(4,4,5,5,6,6,7,7,8,8,9,9,10,10,11,11,11-Heptadecafluoro-2-Hydroxyundecyl)Amino]Isocrotonic Acid is a high-value, fluorinated organic acid derivative that serves as a critical building block for advanced materials. This compound is engineered to impart exceptional surface-active properties, including oil and water repellency, chemical resistance, and thermal stability, due to its unique perfluorinated alkyl chain. It is primarily utilized by R&D chemists and material scientists in the development of next-generation fluorosurfactants, polymer additives, and specialty coatings for demanding industrial and electronic applications.

Application

• Fluorosurfactant Synthesis: A key intermediate for manufacturing high-performance, low-surface-tension surfactants used in fire-fighting foams, coatings, and electronics.
• Polymer Modification: Used to graft fluorinated side chains onto polymers, enhancing their chemical resistance, weatherability, and anti-stick properties for high-performance plastics and elastomers.
• Specialty Coatings & Textiles: Imparts durable oil, water, and stain repellency to fabrics, carpets, and industrial surface treatments.
• Electronic Materials: Employed in the formulation of photoresists, anti-reflective coatings, and dielectric materials in semiconductor manufacturing.
• Pharmaceutical & Agro-chemical Intermediates: Serves as a precursor for synthesizing fluorinated bioactive molecules with enhanced metabolic stability and membrane permeability.
• Adhesive & Sealant Additives: Improves the surface wetting and leveling properties of high-value adhesives and sealants.
