Difference between Fluorocarbon and Surfactant

Fluorocarbon vs. Surfactant

Fluorocarbons, sometimes referred to as perfluorocarbons or PFCs, are, strictly speaking, organofluorine compounds with the formula CxFy, i.e. they contain only carbon and fluorine, though the terminology is not strictly followed. Surfactants are compounds that lower the surface tension (or interfacial tension) between two liquids, between a gas and a liquid, or between a liquid and a solid.

Similarities between Fluorocarbon and Surfactant

Fluorocarbon and Surfactant have 5 things in common (in Unionpedia): Chemical polarity, Fluorosurfactant, Hydrocarbon, Hydrophobe, Surface tension.

Chemical polarity

In chemistry, polarity is a separation of electric charge leading to a molecule or its chemical groups having an electric dipole or multipole moment.

Fluorosurfactant

Fluorosurfactants (also fluorinated surfactants, perfluorinated alkylated substances or PFASs) are synthetic organofluorine chemical compounds that have multiple fluorine atoms.

Hydrocarbon

In organic chemistry, a hydrocarbon is an organic compound consisting entirely of hydrogen and carbon.

Hydrophobe

In chemistry, hydrophobicity is the physical property of a molecule (known as a hydrophobe) that is seemingly repelled from a mass of water.

Surface tension

Surface tension is the elastic tendency of a fluid surface which makes it acquire the least surface area possible.
