Easy-to-Clean Fluoroalkyl Silane (C8, Methoxy) | Manta F1331

Manta F1331 is 1H,1H,2H,2H-perfluorooctyltrimethoxysilane (CAS 85857-16-5, ≥97.0% GC purity, density 1.453 g/cm³ at 20°C) used to build hydrophobic and oleophobic coatings on glass, ceramics and mineral substrates, including anti-fingerprint, easy-to-clean and anti-graffiti treatments. It is comparable to Evonik Dynasylan F 8263 and dilutes readily in ethanol, hexane, xylene, acetone and ethyl acetate.

Manta F1331 is a reactive fluoroalkyl-functional silane designed to deliver extreme liquid repellency and low surface energy. It is highly miscible and can be readily diluted to the desired application concentration in a wide range of organic solvents, including ethanol, n-hexane, xylene, acetone, and ethyl acetate.

Due to its specialized fluorinated carbon chain, Manta F1331 chemically bonds to inorganic substrates to form an ultra-thin, highly durable protective layer. This nano-layer exhibits outstanding hydrophobic (water-repellent) and oleophobic (oil-repellent) properties, making it an ideal choice for advanced surface modifications.

Equivalent grade: Evonik Dynasylan F 8263.

1. Easy-to-Clean & Anti-Smudge Coatings (Glass & Ceramics)

Acts as a premium surface modifier on hydroxyl-functional substrates like glass and ceramics.

Imparts extreme hydrophobic and oleophobic properties.

Typical uses: Automotive windshield treatments (rain repellents), shower cabin glass, and self-cleaning sanitary ceramics.

2. Anti-Fingerprint (AF) Coatings for Displays & Optics

A critical active ingredient for formulating anti-fingerprint and anti-reflective coatings.

Widely used on smartphone touch screens, optical lenses, and electronic displays to ensure natural oils and smudges can be effortlessly wiped away.

3. Adhesion Promoter for Fluoropolymers

Functions as a highly specialized coupling agent to improve adhesion between inorganic substrates (metals, glass) and extremely inert fluoropolymers (e.g., PTFE, fluorosilicones, fluoroelastomers).

4. Anti-Graffiti & Protection for Mineral Substrates

Penetrates porous mineral surfaces (concrete, natural stone) to create an invisible, breathable barrier against water, oil, and harsh chemicals.

Prevents spray paints or permanent markers from bonding to the surface, making it an ideal anti-graffiti treatment for premium architectural facades.
