PF-08
Water- and oil-repellent polymer
PF-08 is a fluorine-free silicone polymer. Incorporation of PF-08 into polymer materials is expected to improve water- and oil-repellent properties. This product also contains a UV-curable group.
- Imparts water- and oil-repellent properties
- Contains a UV-curable group
- PFAS-free
Contact angle measurement (stainability evaluation)
Contact angles were measured for samples prepared using PF-08 and PFAS-containing polymers.
Sample preparation conditions
1. PF-08 and PFAS-containing products were diluted to 3 wt% with the specified solvent.
2. A photopolymerization initiator was added at 3 wt% relative to the solid content.
3. A 150 µL aliquot of the resulting solution was deposited onto a glass plate and applied via spin coating.
4. Samples were dried after UV curing.
Contact angle measurement conditions
Using water, methylene iodide, and oleic acid, contact angles were measured 10 s after droplet application (N = 2), and mean values were calculated. Surface energy was calculated from the contact angles of water and methylene iodide using the Owens–Wendt equation.
