Key Applications of Hexafluoropropylene (HFP)
HFP's unique properties make it an invaluable monomer and intermediate across various high-tech industries:
Fluoropolymer Production (Copolymers): The primary application. HFP is a key comonomer with tetrafluoroethylene (TFE) to produce:
Fluorocarbon Elastomers (FKM): High-performance synthetic rubbers with excellent resistance to heat, chemicals, oils, and fuels, used in automotive, aerospace, and chemical processing industries.
Perfluoroalkoxy Alkanes (PFA): A melt-processible fluoropolymer with superior chemical resistance and high-temperature performance, used in linings, tubing, and wire insulation.
Fluorinated Ethylene Propylene (FEP): Another melt-processible fluoropolymer known for its excellent chemical resistance, non-stick properties, and optical clarity, used in wiring, tubing, and non-stick coatings.
Fluorinated Intermediate: Serves as a versatile building block for the synthesis of various fluorinated specialty chemicals, including fluorinated oils, lubricants, surfactants, and fire extinguishants.
Refrigerant Precursor: Used in the production of certain hydrofluorocarbon (HFC) and hydrofluoroolefin (HFO) refrigerants.
