TETRAFLUOROETHYLENE Uses

TETRAFLUOROETHYLENE (116-14-3) is used as a monomer for manufacturing polyfluortetraethylene, other fluoroplastic, fluorubber and perfluoro propylene. TETRAFLUOROETHYLENE (116-14-3) is also used in the preparation of numerous copolymers that also include hydrogen and/or oxygen, including both fluoroplastics and fluoroelastomers.

TETRAFLUOROETHYLENE Production

TETRAFLUOROETHYLENE (116-14-3) is manufactured from chloroform.
CHCl₃ + 2HF → CHClF₂ + 2HCl
2CHClF₂ → C₂F₄ + 2HCl

TETRAFLUOROETHYLENE Safety Profile

Safety: WARNING: Irreversible damage risk, protect skin/eyes/lungs; Safety glasses, adequate ventilation.
Hazard Codes : C: Corrosive
F: Highly Flammable
Risk Statements : 11: Highly Flammable
Safety Statements : 16: Keep away from sources of ignition - No smoking
36/37/39: Wear suitable protective clothing, gloves and eye/face protection
45: In case of accident or if you feel unwell, seek medical advice immediately (show label where possible)
RIDADR : 1081
Hazard Note : Corrosive/Flammable
HazardClass : 2.1
Confirmed carcinogen. Mildly toxic by inhalation. Can act as an asphyxiant and may have other toxic properties. The gas is flammable when exposed to heat or flame. The inhibited monomer will explode if ignited. Explosive in the form of vapor when exposed to heat or flame. Will explode at pressures above 2.7 bar if limonene inhibitor is not added. Iodine pentafluoride depletes the limonene inhibitor and then causes explosive polymerization of the monomer. Mixtures with hexafluoropropene and air form an explosive peroxide. Reacts violently with SO₃; air; difluoromethylene dihypofluorite; dioxygen difluoride; iodine pentafluoride; oxygen. When heated to decomposition it emits highly toxic fumes of F⁻. See also FLUORIDES.
