1-(PERFLUORO-N-OCTYL)DODECANE

Description:

1-(Perfluoro-n-octyl)dodecane, with the CAS number 106873-67-0, is a fluorinated organic compound characterized by a long hydrophobic hydrocarbon chain and a perfluorinated octyl group. This compound exhibits unique properties due to the presence of fluorine atoms, which impart high chemical stability, low surface energy, and resistance to degradation. It is typically non-polar and hydrophobic, making it useful in applications where water repellency and low friction are desired. The perfluorinated segment contributes to its low volatility and high thermal stability, while the dodecane portion enhances its solubility in non-polar solvents. Additionally, this compound may exhibit surfactant-like behavior, potentially useful in various industrial applications, including coatings, lubricants, and as a processing aid in polymer production. However, due to environmental concerns associated with perfluorinated compounds, its use may be subject to regulatory scrutiny. Overall, 1-(perfluoro-n-octyl)dodecane represents a class of substances with specialized properties suitable for niche applications in materials science and engineering.
