Product Information

• Name: 2,2,3,3-Tetrafluoro-1-propanol
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: 2,2,3,3-Tetrafluoro-1-propanol is a solvent that has been used in the manufacture of polymers. It can be distilled from sodium trifluoroacetate at high pressure and temperature to give a constant boiling point. 2,2,3,3-Tetrafluoro-1-propanol is transported by gas or liquid diffusion. The kinetic energy of the molecules increases with increasing temperature and pressure; however, it does not have an appreciable chemical reaction with oxygen or ozone. This chemical has been used as a photoinitiator to polymerize cationic monomers such as trifluoroacetic acid and acrylamide. 2,2,3,3-Tetrafluoro-1-propanol has also been shown to react with water vapor to form hydrogen fluoride and hydrofluoric acid.
