Find out more about HFPO-XA
Hexafluoropropylene oxide oligomers (HFPO oligomers) are a specific class of PFASs (per- and polyfluoroalkylated substances) with unique physico-chemical properties, mainly used in advanced industrial applications.
Composition and physico-chemical properties
HFPO oligomers are derived from hexafluoropropylene oxide, a fluorinated monomer used in the manufacture of polymers.
- High water solubility: unlike other long-chain PFASs, they migrate easily into groundwater.
- Resistance to degradation: they are very stable chemically and thermally.
- Low adsorption to soils, making them highly mobile.
Industrial uses
- HFPO-DA (GenX) has been introduced as a substitute for PFOA in the manufacture of fluoropolymers (e.g. polytetrafluoroethylene – PTFE).
- Used in the production of chemical-resistant coatings, industrial surfactants, membranes, etc.
Role as environmental contaminants
They are now monitored as emerging pollutants, in particular because of their presence in industrial waste and their mobility in aquatic environments.
HFPO-DA (GenX) is classified by the US EPA as a potentially toxic substance, with documented effects on:
- liver,
- kidneys,
- and embryonic development.
Their detection is targeted by methods such as EPA 533 / 1633, or ISO 21675.
