Key Product Features
🌿
1. Safety & Eco-friendliness
Non-flammable, non-toxic, ODP=0, and low GWP. It complies with environmental regulations and serves as a viable substitute for traditional solvents like trichloroethylene and n-propyl bromide.
✨
2. Superior Cleaning Performance
The combination of low surface tension and low viscosity ensures strong cleaning power against oil, flux, particulates, and fingerprints. It dries quickly with no residue, making it ideal for precision cleaning.
⚡
3. Insulation & Heat Transfer
Features high dielectric strength, allowing for live-line cleaning (cleaning while energized). Its high heat transfer efficiency makes it suitable as an electronic fluorinated fluid or immersion liquid cooling medium.
🔬
4. Moderate Solvency
Exhibits good solvency for fluorocarbons, silicone oils, and greases, while showing weak solvency for polar substances. This makes it perfect for selective cleaning and formulated solvent applications.
🛡️
5. Stability
Possesses strong chemical inertness; it is resistant to acids and alkalis and does not decompose easily, ensuring stable performance during long-term use.

❓ Frequently Asked Questions
QWhat is Methyl Perfluoroisobutyl Ether (CAS 163702-08-7) and what makes it unique?
Methyl perfluoroisobutyl ether is a colorless, transparent, non-flammable fluorinated ether solvent. Its uniqueness lies in its combination of zero ozone depletion potential (ODP=0), low global warming potential (GWP), high chemical stability, excellent insulating properties, and fast evaporation — making it a superior and environmentally responsible alternative to traditional solvents such as trichloroethylene and n-propyl bromide.
QIs Methyl Perfluoroisobutyl Ether safe to use in electronics cleaning?
Yes. It is non-flammable, low-toxicity, and features high dielectric strength, which means it can be used for live-line cleaning (cleaning energized components without risk). It leaves no residue after evaporation, making it ideal for sensitive electronics such as PCBs, wafers, chips, connectors, and optical lenses.
QCan this solvent be used in immersion liquid cooling for data centers?
Absolutely. Methyl perfluoroisobutyl ether has excellent heat transfer efficiency and electrical insulation properties, making it a highly effective immersion liquid cooling medium for data centers, servers, and high-performance computing chips. It does not react with electronic components and provides stable, long-term thermal management.
QWhat is the purity specification and how is it packaged?
The product meets a purity of ≥99.9%, with tightly controlled impurity levels including water content ≤50×10⁻⁴%, acidity ≤5 ppm, non-volatile residue ≤0.001%, and virtually no detectable ionic contamination. It is supplied in 250 kg drums to facilitate safe handling and storage.
QIs Methyl Perfluoroisobutyl Ether suitable for use in cosmetics and personal care products?
Yes. Due to its low irritation, fast-drying nature, and non-oily finish, it is used as a solvent or wetting agent in facial cleansers, makeup removers, antiperspirants, hair care products, sunscreens, and makeup formulations. It improves product texture without leaving a greasy residue.
QWhat are the recommended storage conditions for this product?
The product should be stored in a cool, well-ventilated, dry, and tightly sealed environment. It must be kept away from open flames, heat sources, and oxidizing agents. Proper storage ensures the chemical integrity and performance of the solvent over its shelf life.
