Description

3-(Perfluorobutyl)-2-Hydroxypropyl Acrylate is a specialized fluorinated acrylate monomer, distinguished by its unique combination of a reactive acrylate group and a perfluorobutyl chain. This compound is engineered to impart exceptional surface properties, including outstanding oil and water repellency, chemical resistance, and low surface energy, to polymeric materials. It is a critical raw material for R&D and production in advanced coatings, surface modifiers, and high-performance polymers for demanding industrial applications.

Application

• Fluorinated Polymer Synthesis: A key monomer for creating copolymers with enhanced chemical and thermal stability.
• Surface Modifiers & Additives: Used to formulate additives that provide superior oil, water, and stain repellency to textiles, leather, and paper.
• Specialty Coatings: Essential for developing high-performance, low-friction, and anti-graffiti coatings for automotive, aerospace, and architectural applications.
• Optical Fiber Cladding: Employed in the production of fluorinated acrylate resins for optical fiber coatings to reduce signal loss.
• Release Coatings: Formulation of non-stick and easy-release coatings for industrial molds and adhesives.
• Hydrophobic & Oleophobic Finishes: Imparts durable water- and oil-repellent finishes to technical fabrics and filtration media.
