CAS:27905-45-9 | 3,3,4,4,5,5,6,6,7,7,8,8,9,9,10,10,10-Heptadecafluorodecyl acrylate ,Description

3,3,4,4,5,5,6,6,7,7,8,8,9,9,10,10,10-Heptadecafluorodecyl acrylate (HDFDA) is an acrylate monomer used in the synthesis of polymers. HDFDA is a fluorinated alkyl acrylate, which is a type of monomer that is used in the synthesis of polymers. HDFDA is an important monomer for the synthesis of polymers with a variety of properties, such as low surface energy, high hydrophobicity, and low dielectric constant. HDFDA is also used in the synthesis of polymers for medical and industrial applications.
 

Scientific Research Applications

Copolymerization Studies

Heptadecafluorodecyl acrylate (AC8) has been utilized in copolymerization studies. For instance, it has been copolymerized with morpholinoethyl methacrylate (MEMA), demonstrating that copolymers exhibit a structure with a higher content of the fluorinated base unit. These studies contribute to understanding the reactivity scale in radical copolymerization (Guyot, Boutevin, & Ameduri, 1996) .

Polymer Synthesis

AC8 has been polymerized by reversible addition-fragmentation chain transfer and copolymerized with 2-hydroxyethyl acrylate, leading to the formation of random and block copolymers. These polymers are typically amphiphilic compounds and contribute to the development of polymers with specific end-capped groups (Grignard et al., 2007) .

Dispersion Polymerization

AC8 has been used in dispersion polymerization, particularly in the synthesis of monodispersed spherical particles of poly(acrylonitrile). The presence of AC8 influences the size and distribution of microsphere particles, highlighting its role in the fine-tuning of polymer characteristics (Cho et al., 2009).

Material Properties and Applications

AC8-containing polymers have been studied for their unique material properties. For example, comb-shaped polymers with AC8 side groups have been investigated for their aggregation states and mesophase structures, revealing their potential in liquid crystalline applications (Volkov et al., 1992; Volkov et al., 1994).

Industrial Applications

In industrial contexts, AC8 has been involved in the synthesis of superamphiphobic materials, like sponges, which are robust against physical and chemical damage and useful for gas-permeable liquid separators (Kim et al., 2016).
