Perfluorooctane Usage And Synthesis

Chemical Properties

colourless liquid

Uses

Perfluorooctane (CAS# 307-34-6) can be used as a moisture-proof and wear-resistant coating compound. It can also be used to surface coat structure of surgical prosthesis.

Definition

ChEBI: Perfluorooctane is a fluorocarbon and a fluoroalkane. It derives from a hydride of an octane.

General Description

Perfluorooctane is a polyfluoroalkyl substance. Perfluorohexanoic acid (PFHxA), a 6-carbon perfluoroalkyl is an alternate of perfluorooctane. Phase behavior of semifluorinated n-alkanes in perfluorooctane has been studied.

Safety Profile

Poison by intravenous route.When heated to decomposition it emits toxic vapors ofFí.
