Description

Perfluorodecanoic Anhydride 97+% is a high-purity fluorinated organic reagent, specifically the anhydride derivative of perfluorodecanoic acid. This compound is a critical building block for introducing highly fluorinated, hydrophobic, and oleophobic chains into target molecules, imparting unique surface properties. It is essential for R&D and production in advanced material science, particularly for creating specialized fluoropolymers, surface modifiers, and high-performance lubricants.

Application

• Fluoropolymer Synthesis: A key monomer or chain extender for producing high-performance fluorinated polymers and copolymers with exceptional chemical and thermal resistance.
• Surface Modification Agent: Used to create ultra-hydrophobic and oleophobic coatings on textiles, paper, and electronic components.
• Pharmaceutical & Agro-chemical Intermediates: Serves as a precursor for synthesizing fluorinated active ingredients and metabolites in life science research.
• Lubricant & Grease Additives: Imparts extreme pressure and anti-wear properties to high-performance lubricants for demanding industrial applications.
• Specialty Surfactants: Used in the formulation of fluorosurfactants for fire-fighting foams, coatings, and electronics manufacturing.
• Analytical Chemistry: Employed as a derivatization agent for gas chromatography or mass spectrometry analysis of specific compound classes.

Quality Control

Our Perfluorodecanoic Anhydride 97+% is manufactured under strict quality protocols. Every batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including assay by NMR or titration and impurity profiling by GC or HPLC, to ensure it meets the declared 97+% minimum purity specification. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing identity, purity, and relevant physical data is provided with each shipment to guarantee traceability and batch-to-batch consistency for your critical applications.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area at room temperature (15-25°C). This material is hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive); containers must be kept tightly sealed under a dry inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) after opening to prevent hydrolysis. Keep away from strong bases and oxidizing agents.
