Hexafluoropropylene is the fluoroalkene with the formula CF 3 CF=CF 2. It is the perfluorocarbon counterpart to the hydrocarbon propylene . It is mainly used to produce copolymers with tetrafluoroethylene .
Hexafluoropropylene oxide (HFPO) is an intermediate used in industrial organofluorine chemistry; specifically it is a monomer for fluoropolymers. This colourless gas is the epoxide of hexafluoropropylene , which is a fluorinated analog of propylene oxide , HFPO is produced by Chemours and 3M and as a precursor to the lubricant Krytox and ...
GenX is a Chemours trademark name for a synthetic, short-chain organofluorine chemical compound, the ammonium salt of hexafluoropropylene oxide dimer acid (HFPO-DA). It can also be used more informally to refer to the group of related fluorochemicals that are used to produce GenX.
The production process involves 2 molecules of hexafluoropropylene oxide (HFPO) to produce hexafluoropropylene oxide dimer acid fluoride (FRD-903). The ammonium salt of FRD-903 is FRD-902 (ammonium (2,3,3,3-tetrafluoro-2-(heptafluoropropoxy)propanoate)), which is the specific chemical which Chemours has trademarked as part of GenX process. [5]
Fluorinated ethylene propylene (FEP) is a copolymer of hexafluoropropylene and tetrafluoroethylene.It differs from the polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) resins in that it is melt-processable using conventional injection molding and screw extrusion techniques. [2]
Type-1 FKMs are composed of vinylidene fluoride (VDF) and hexafluoropropylene (HFP). Copolymers are the standard type of FKMs showing a good overall performance. Their fluorine content is approximately 66 weight percent. Type-2 FKMs are composed of VDF, HFP, and tetrafluoroethylene (TFE). Terpolymers have a higher fluorine content compared to ...

Krytox is a grease generated by the polymerization of hexafluoropropylene oxide. Its chemical formula is F−(CF(CF 3)−CF 2 −O) n −CF 2 CF 3. The ether groups are integral to the polymer chain. [3] Nafion is a perfluorinated polyether with pendant sulfonic acid groups (RSO 3 H).
