Bisphenol AF for short ( BPAF ) is an aromatic organic compound from the group of diphenylmethane derivatives and one of the bisphenols . BPAF is a fluorinated compound related to bisphenol A in which the two methyl groups (CH 3 ) have been replaced by trifluoromethyl groups (CF 3 ).

use

BPAF is used in the production of fluoroelastomers , from which seals and hoses are made. Furthermore, like other bisphenols, it is also required as a monomer for the production of special plastics.
