  • Oil and alcohol repellent fluorinated surfactants and intermediates, derivatives and uses thereof
    Patent number: 6180826
    Abstract: New water-soluble polyperfluoroalkyl surfactants derived from functional polycarboxylic polymers, characterized by the fact they have alco-oleophobic properties, to be used in the make-up of protein or synthetic foam for extinguishing fires caused not only by hydrocarbons, but also by polar liquids (alcohol, ethers, esters, etc.) without requiring the use of thickening agents, such as polysaccharides.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: January 30, 1998
    Date of Patent: January 30, 2001
    Assignee: Laboratoire 3 S
    Inventors: Istvan Szonyi, Stephane Szonyi, Francois Szonyi
  • Polyfluoroalkyl nitrogen compounds, processes for their preparation and their use
    Patent number: 5107021
    Abstract: The invention relates to polyfluoroalkyl nitrogen compounds of general formula:R.sub.F --(CH.sub.2).sub.2 --Xin which X denotes an isothiocynate --N.dbd.C.dbd.S, carbodiimide --N.dbd.C.dbd.N(CH.sub.2).sub.2 --R'.sub.F or thiourea --NH--CS--A group, A denoting an optionally substituted amino group, and each of the symbols R.sub.F and R'.sub.F denotes a perfluoroalkyl radical.These compounds, prepared from the corresponding azides R.sub.F (CH.sub.2).sub.2 N.sub.3 or amines R.sub.F (CH.sub.2).sub.2 NH.sub.2, can be used as surface-active agents or precursors of such agents.

  • Novel non ionic fluorinated compounds, their process of preparation and applications thereof as surfactants
    Patent number: 4859797
    Abstract: The invention relates to non ionic fluorinated compounds having the formula R.sub.F C hd 2H.sub.4 S(R)H, wherein R designates a C.sub.2 H.sub.4 X unit with X=O or S, or a chain exclusively comprising several such units, and two consecutive units can be identical or different, and R.sub.F is a perfluorinated alkyl group exclusive of compounds having the formula:R.sub.F C.sub.2 H.sub.4 SC.sub.2 H.sub.4 OH, R.sub.F C.sub.2 H.sub.4 S(C.sub.2 H.sub.4 O).sub.2 H and R.sub.F (C.sub.2 H.sub.4 S).sub.2 Hand the mixtures of such compounds, in particular, the mixtures of the above defined products differing from one another by the length of their perfluorinated chain, but having the hydrophilic portion of the molecule identical from one product to the other.To obtain them, a compound having the formula R.sub.F C.sub.2 H.sub.
