Methyl Nonafluorobutyl Ether

Methyl Nonafluorobutyl Ether

Methyl Nonafluorobutyl Ether is a high-performance fluorinated ether characterized by low surface tension, excellent electrical insulation properties, and outstanding thermal and chemical stability. It is widely used as a solvent, cleaning agent, and environmentally friendly alternative to ozone-depleting substances in industrial, electronic, and medical applications.

Physical Features

Application Areas

1. Reaction solvent for methoxynonafluorobutane in:

   • Electrophilic fluorination of aryl and heteroaryl formatted reagents to synthesize various aryl fluoride derivatives

   • Grafting fluorinated diblock copolymers onto silicon dioxide particles

2. Environmentally friendly replacement for freon and other ozone-layer-depleting substances

3. Cleaning agent and solvent for precision electronic instruments and medical equipment, replacing CFC-113, trichloroethane, and carbon tetrachloride

4. Industrial solvent and diluent used in:

   • Degreasing

   • Detergents

   • Paints and lacquers

   • Cleaning electronic devices

   • Coating optical components
