• Chemical Properties: Highly chemically inert, resistant to oxidation, acids, alkalis, and high temperatures; non-flammable and non-toxic under normal conditions.

Main Applications

1. Heat Transfer Fluids: Used in cooling systems for electronics, lasers, and precision instruments due to its high thermal stability, low viscosity, and efficient heat dissipation.

2. Industrial Solvents: Employed in cleaning processes for delicate components (e.g., semiconductor parts, optical lenses) as it effectively dissolves greases and fluorinated contaminants without damaging surfaces.

3. Medical and Biological Research: Serves as a density gradient medium for cell or particle separation, leveraging its inertness and tunable density. It is also explored as a contrast agent in imaging techniques.

4. Aerospace and Electronics: Utilized as a dielectric fluid in high-voltage equipment or as a lubricant additive, benefiting from its non-conductivity and resistance to extreme conditions.

5. Cosmetics and Materials: Incorporated into waterproof formulations (e.g., sunscreens, coatings) due to its hydrophobic properties and compatibility with other ingredients.
