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.
