  2. Fluorinert - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fluorinert

    The science-fiction film The Abyss (1989) depicted an experimental liquid-breathing system, in which the use of highly oxygenated Fluorinert enabled a diver to descend to great depths. While several rats were shown actually breathing Fluorinert, scenes depicting actor Ed Harris using the fluid-breathing apparatus were simulated.

  3. Fluorocarbon - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fluorocarbon

    Perfluoroalkanes are very stable because of the strength of the carbon–fluorine bond, one of the strongest in organic chemistry. [4] Its strength is a result of the electronegativity of fluorine imparting partial ionic character through partial charges on the carbon and fluorine atoms, which shorten and strengthen the bond (compared to carbon-hydrogen bonds) through favorable covalent ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liquid_breathing

    At these pressures, most fluorocarbon liquids require about 70 mL/kg minute-ventilation volumes of liquid (about 5 L/min for a 70 kg adult) to remove enough CO 2 for normal resting metabolism. [51] This is a great deal of fluid to move, particularly as liquids are more viscous and denser than gases, (for example water is about 850 times the ...

  5. Organofluorine chemistry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Organofluorine_chemistry

    Because of the reduced intermolecular van der Waals interactions, fluorocarbon-based compounds are sometimes used as lubricants or are highly volatile. Fluorocarbon liquids have medical applications as oxygen carriers. [citation needed] The structure of organofluorine compounds can be distinctive.

    The table is sortable by each of the following refrigerant properties (scroll right or reduce magnification to view more properties): Type/prefix (see legends); ASHRAE number

  7. Fluorine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fluorine

    Fluorocarbon gases are generally greenhouse gases with global-warming potentials (GWPs) of about 100 to 10,000; sulfur hexafluoride has a value of around 20,000. [288] An outlier is HFO-1234yf which is a new type of refrigerant called a Hydrofluoroolefin (HFO) and has attracted global demand due to its GWP of less than 1 compared to 1,430 for ...

  8. Perfluorobutane - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Perfluorobutane

    1594 kg/m 3 (liquid, 101.3 kPa at boiling point) [2] ... It is a simple fluorocarbon with a n-butane skeleton and all the hydrogen atoms replaced with fluorine atoms.

  9. Fluorotelomer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fluorotelomer

    Fluorotelomers are fluorocarbon-based oligomers, or telomers, synthesized by telomerization. [1] Some fluorotelomers and fluorotelomer-based compounds are a source of environmentally persistent perfluorinated carboxylic acids such as PFOA and PFNA, while others are under extended investigation.
