Tris[2-(perfluorodecyl)ethyl] Phosphate

Description:

Tris[2-(perfluorodecyl)ethyl] phosphate, with the CAS number 106554-16-9, is a chemical compound that belongs to the class of organophosphate esters. It is characterized by its three phosphate groups esterified with perfluorinated alkyl chains, specifically those containing a decyl group. This structure imparts unique properties, such as high thermal stability and resistance to degradation, making it suitable for various applications, including as a flame retardant and plasticizer in polymers. The presence of perfluorinated groups enhances its hydrophobicity and lipophobicity, contributing to its effectiveness in reducing flammability and improving the durability of materials. However, the environmental persistence and potential bioaccumulation of perfluorinated compounds raise concerns regarding their ecological impact. As such, the use and regulation of Tris[2-(perfluorodecyl)ethyl] phosphate are subject to scrutiny in light of ongoing research into the safety and environmental implications of perfluorinated substances.
