Chemical Properties
clear colorless liquid
Uses
(Perfluorooctyl)ethyl Acrylate is a reagent used in the synthesis of parahydrophobic polymer coatings, as well as polymer brushes for controlling surface lubrication.
Application
1H,1H,2H,2H-Heptadecafluorodecyl acrylate can be applied as follows:
(1) Coatings Industry: Due to their low surface tension and excellent heat resistance, 1H,1H,2H,2H-Heptadecafluorodecyl acrylate are commonly used in the preparation of high-performance surface coatings, such as water-repellent, oil-repellent, corrosion-repellent, anti-adhesive and temperature-resistant coatings[1-2].
(2) Lubricants: It can be used as a lubricant, especially where oil and water resistance is required.
(3) Surface Modifiers: In surface modification of textiles, plastics and other materials, it can provide special surface properties such as anti-staining and anti-adhesion[3].
(4) Electronic encapsulation material: Due to its chemical inertness and heat resistance, it can also be used as encapsulation material for electronic products, such as liquid crystal displays and fibre optic manufacturing.
Definition
1H,1H,2H,2H-Heptadecafluorodecyl acrylate is a semi-volatile fluorinated organic compound and is in polluted air in Asia and the western United States during the spring. The structure of this substance contains multiple fluorine atoms and a terminal olefin unit. It has high chemical reactivity and is sensitive to intense light. Perfluorooctylethyl acrylate contains an unsaturated double-bond unit and can be used to prepare perfluoroacrylate polymers.
Research
Latex based upon fluorinated acrylates such as perfluorooctylethyl methacrylate (FMA) and perfluorooctylethyl acrylate (FA; 1H,1H,2H,2H-Heptadecafluorodecyl acrylate) and fluorine-free acrylates such as n-butyl methacrylate (BMA) was prepared using emulsion polymerization in the presence of octadecyltrimethylammonium bromide (C18TAB) and 2,2′-azobis(2-amidinopropane) dihydrochloride (V50) as water-soluble azo initiator[4].
