Key Properties
Fluorine groups introduce high free volume, lowering dielectric constant and water absorption
Good transparency / less color generation in derived polyimides due to suppressed charge transfer interactions
Reasonable thermal stability and rigidity from aromatic dianhydride backbone
Balanced mechanical properties and electrical insulation in polymers
Good processability of polymer with this dianhydride (soluble precursors)
Key Applications of 6FDA
Gas Separation Membranes: Essential for creating polyimide-based membranes, including mixed-matrix and hollow fiber types, with high selectivity for CO₂/CH₄ (up to 45) and H₂/CH₄, approaching performance limits; used in natural gas processing and olefin/paraffin separation.
