Primary Chemistry:
Halocarbon® TFA is a high-purity trifluoroacetic acid compound from Halocarbon formulated for use as a specialty chemical intermediate, catalyst, and processing aid.
Halocarbon® TFA is a premium fluorinated organic acid engineered to combine strong acidity with excellent stability and reactivity. It helps to promote a variety of reactions, making it highly effective in peptide and protein synthesis, pharmaceutical manufacturing, agrochemical production, chromatography, chemical synthesis, and more. With a trifluoroacetic acid base, it acts as an olefin hydration promoter to encourage the synthesis of alcohols from olefins, which are polymerized, oxidized, or otherwise decomposed by sulfuric acid.
