2-(Perfluorohexyl)ethanol

Description:
2-(Perfluorohexyl)ethanol, with the CAS number 647-42-7, is a fluorinated alcohol characterized by its unique structure that includes a perfluoroalkyl chain. This compound features a hydrophilic hydroxyl (-OH) group attached to a hydrophobic perfluorohexyl group, which consists of six carbon atoms fully substituted with fluorine atoms. The presence of the perfluoroalkyl chain imparts distinct properties, such as low surface tension, high thermal stability, and resistance to chemical degradation. 2-(Perfluorohexyl)ethanol exhibits amphiphilic behavior, making it useful in various applications, including surfactants, emulsifiers, and in the formulation of coatings and materials that require water and oil repellency. Additionally, its unique properties make it valuable in the fields of material science and nanotechnology. However, due to the environmental concerns associated with perfluorinated compounds, its use is subject to regulatory scrutiny, emphasizing the need for responsible handling and disposal.
