1H,1H,2H,2H-Perfluorodecyltriethoxysilane Usage And Synthesis

Description

1H,1H,2H,2H-Perfluorodecyltriethoxysilane, also named perfluoroalkylethyltrimethoxysilane (PFATES), is used to bond poly(tetrafluoroethylene) films to silicon wafers and it is also utilized in anti-reflective coating, release coating and soil repellent coating because of its special chemical structure. It can be used as an anti-fingerprint agent for glass products such as advanced mobile phone screens and camera lenses.

Chemical Properties

Colorless liquid

Uses

1H,1H,2H,2H-Perfluorodecyltriethoxysilane is used in making thin film transistors, polyethersulfone membranes, and a superwettable Janus membrane.

Application

1H,1H,2H,2H-Perfluorodecyltriethoxysilane(PFDTES) was used to functionalize hydrophobic ceramic membranes with nanosized pores. It was also used to functionalize Cu2(OH)3NO3 crystal to render it hydrophobic. The product may be used to coat nanosized medical devices.
PFDTES is used for the superhydrophobicity of polyvinylidene fluoride(PVDF) to protect the metal surfaces from fouling. A cost effective and scalable superamphiphobic spray coating of PFDTES on stainless steel surfaces may potentially be used to create anti-icing and stain-resistant surfaces. It may be used to modify the surface of poly(methyl methacrylate(PMMA) for the fabrication of microfluidic chips.

General Description

1H,1H,2H,2H-Perfluorodecyltriethoxysilane(PFDTES) is a fluoroalkylsilanes(FAS) with low surface energy and high wettability due to the presence of fluorinated carbons. It is used as a superhydrophobic agent for synthesizing various functional coatings.

Synthesis

1H,1H,2H,2H-Perfluorodecyltriethoxysilane could be synthesized through the reaction of perfluorooctylethylene with triethoxysilane. The volatile matter is removed by distillation under reduced pressure. Finally, after purification,1H,1H,2H,2H-Perfluorodecyltriethoxysilane with a purity of 99% is obtained. The yield can reach 97.3%.
