1H,1H,2H,2H-Tridecafluoro-1-n-octanol(Cat No.:R016283)is a fluorinated alcohol with the molecular formula C8H5F13O. It consists of a partially fluorinated n-octanol chain, where the terminal carbon bears a hydroxyl group and the remaining chain includes 13 fluorine atoms, creating a hydrophobic, lipophobic fluorocarbon tail. This compound exhibits unique surfactant properties, making it valuable in coatings, surface treatments, and polymer modification. Its low surface energy and chemical resistance are exploited in applications like anti-fouling surfaces, stain repellents, and electronic materials. It also serves as a building block in fluorochemical synthesis and advanced material science.
