Other Fields that Make Use of Fluorochemicals
05 February 2012
Fluorochemicals are compounds that are mainly comprised of fluorine. These compounds have proved to be the most efficient in many fields and have the widest range of practical application in the field of medicine, pharmaceutical, research, agriculture and even photography. Aside from the aforementioned fields, there are also other uses of fluorochemcials. Fluorinated Surfactants are utilized as dispersing and emulsifying chemicals while correlated compounds are used as repellant finishes or soil release finishes for textiles.
Then, Fluorochemical can also be utilized as dyes. With the addition of fluorine, it has been observed that light fastness and chemical resistance of dye, hence, proved to be a dying agent.
