Perfluorohexanoic Acid (Cat No.:R061442) is a six-carbon perfluorinated carboxylic acid known for its exceptional chemical stability, hydrophobicity, and resistance to thermal and oxidative degradation. It is used in the production of fluoropolymers, stain-resistant coatings, and surfactants. PFHxA has gained attention as a replacement for longer-chain perfluorinated compounds, although it is still monitored for environmental persistence and potential bioaccumulation. It serves as a standard in environmental testing and toxicological research. Supplied at high purity, PFHxA is ideal for analytical chemistry, regulatory studies, and materials science applications.
