• Description: 2-(Perfluorooctyl)ethyl methacrylate is a fluorinated methacrylate monomer with a perfluoroalkyl substituent. It has been used for the preparation of polymer films and coatings that are permeable to water vapor. The film’s properties depend on the amount of water vapor that can permeate the film. 2-(Perfluorooctyl)ethyl methacrylate has also been used to prepare particles with an average diameter of 5 μm, which are used in photoelectron spectroscopy experiments. 2-(Perfluorooctyl)ethyl methacrylate is not soluble in organic solvents, but it can be prepared as a solution by adding an appropriate solvent or cosolvent to dilute the polymer film sample.
