CAS 507-63-1

Perfluorooctyl iodide

Description:

Perfluorooctyl iodide, with the CAS number 507-63-1, is a perfluorinated organic compound characterized by a long carbon chain fully saturated with fluorine atoms, except for one terminal carbon that is bonded to an iodine atom. This structure imparts unique properties, including high thermal stability, low surface tension, and exceptional hydrophobicity and oleophobicity, making it useful in various applications such as surfactants, lubricants, and in the formulation of specialty coatings. The presence of iodine also introduces potential reactivity, allowing for further chemical modifications. Perfluorooctyl iodide is typically non-flammable and exhibits low toxicity, although its environmental persistence raises concerns regarding bioaccumulation and ecological impact. As a member of the perfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) family, it shares similar characteristics with other fluorinated compounds, including resistance to degradation in the environment. Handling this compound requires appropriate safety measures due to its chemical stability and potential health effects associated with long-term exposure to PFAS.
