Building on 30 years' experience in the generation and use
of elemental fluorine, Air Products is a leading global supplier
of site-selective fluorination reagents and custom-manufactured
fluorinated intermediates to life science and fine chemical
industries. Air Products' expertise in large-scale direct-fluorination
coupled with individualized R&D allows for efficient and
cost-effective commercialization of fluorine-containing molecules.
Air Products is a manufacturer and supplier
of:
Elemental fluorine
Selectfluor™ - a proprietary F2-derived
electrophilic fluorinating agent
Deoxo-Fluor™ - a proprietary versatile,
easy to use nucleophilic reagent which is a safe and effective
replacement for DAST
Sulfur tetrafluoride, SF4 - a deoxofluorinating
agent particularly useful for the conversion of aldehydes, ketones
and carboxylic acids into respective compounds in the presence
of HF and other Lewis acid catalysts.
Air Products' scientists and engineers in fluorination work
hand-in-hand with customers to develop the proper fluorochemical
molecule… providing lab, pilot, semi-commercial or commercial
quantities of fluorochemical products. Depending on your substrate,
fluorination may be accomplished by either existing or new
propriety reagents; or custom fluorination processes that
utilize elemental fluorine or sulfur tetrafluoride.
