8: 2-fluorotelomer alcohol ( 8: 2-FTOH ) is a chemical compound that belongs to the group of fluorotelomer alcohols within the per- and polyfluorinated alkyl compounds (PFAS).
Extraction and presentation
8: 2-FTOH is produced by means of telomerization , from which the name is derived.
use
Various consumer products such as textiles or food packaging are finished with perfluorinated surfactants in order to give them water and grease repellent properties. 8: 2 FTOH can be found as an impurity in end products such as paper or cardboard for food packaging.
Biological importance
The product impurities can migrate out of the materials. 8: 2-FTOH can break down to perfluorooctanoic acid ( PFOA ), which is persistent in the environment .
