1,1,4,4-tetrafluoro-1,3-butadiene

1,1,4,4-Tetrafluoro-1,3-butadiene (CAS 407-70-5 ) is a fluorinated diene monomer used as a building block in the synthesis of specialty fluoropolymers. Its difluorovinylidene end groups make it reactive in polymerization systems. This monomer is essential where conventional hydrocarbon monomers cannot deliver the required chemical resistance or thermal stability in the final material. In plastics and polymer manufacturing, it is incorporated into fluoropolymer backbones. The resulting materials exhibit enhanced resistance to aggressive solvents, fuels, and oxidizing agents. Formulators targeting high-performance coatings and linings for industrial cleaning equipment use these resins to extend service life. These coatings are designed to withstand repeated exposure to caustic and acidic chemistries. It also serves as a co-monomer in research and pilot-scale production of novel fluorinated elastomers for industrial use. This chemical allows for precise control over chain structure and crosslink density in specialized applications. It is supplied as a liquefied gas or stabilized liquid, typically in cylinder or lecture bottle formats. These formats are suited to laboratory and small-scale industrial use. It is available at research and technical grades, with purity levels commonly specified for monomer-grade applications to ensure consistency. Packaging and quantity options are generally confirmed on a per-order basis. This is necessary given the specialized handling requirements of fluorinated gas-phase materials and the safety protocols involved in transport.
