methyl perfluorohexadecanoate

Description:
Methyl perfluorohexadecanoate, with the CAS number 165457-57-8, is a perfluorinated compound characterized by a long carbon chain and fluorinated functional groups. It belongs to the class of perfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS), which are known for their unique properties, including high thermal stability, chemical resistance, and low surface tension. This compound features a methyl ester functional group at one end and a fully fluorinated hexadecanoate chain, contributing to its hydrophobic and lipophobic characteristics. Methyl perfluorohexadecanoate is typically used in various industrial applications, including surfactants, coatings, and as a potential additive in formulations requiring water and oil repellency. Due to the presence of fluorine atoms, it exhibits low volatility and high persistence in the environment, raising concerns regarding its ecological impact and potential health effects. As with many PFAS, regulatory scrutiny is increasing, prompting research into its behavior in biological systems and the environment. Overall, methyl perfluorohexadecanoate exemplifies the unique properties and challenges associated with perfluorinated compounds.
