Application

Pentadecafluorooctanoyl chloride can be used:
  • In the derivatization of poly(2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate) (PHEMA) via esterification for use as composite membranes.
  • In the fabrication of superhydrophobic cellulose surfaces.
  • As a reagent for the esterification of hydroxyl-functionalized gold nanocrystals.
  • As a reagent in the synthesis of fluorous derivatives of diaminocyclohexane which are used as ligands.
