Product Information

• Name: Perfluoroheptanoyl chloride
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: Perfluoroheptanoyl chloride is a fluorinated hydrocarbon that is used as a surfactant in detergent compositions. It has been shown to be biostable, which means it does not react with other molecules in the environment. This compound also has low environmental toxicity because of its resistance to peroxidation and its ability to form stable complexes with metals. Perfluoroheptanoyl chloride has been shown to cause allergic reactions in some people and may cause adverse effects on animal health. Research on the effects of perfluoroheptanoyl chloride on Xenopus oocytes has demonstrated that this compound can affect gene expression and result in cell death.
