Perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA) is a persistent perfluoroalkyl substance produced via electrochemical fluorination. Its molecular formula is C8H7O2F15 with CAS number 465-85-6. Due to global restrictions, industrial synthesis is heavily regulated.
Strict clinical usage limits apply due to toxicity. Store in sealed, corrosion-resistant containers away from incompatible oxidizers. Personal protective equipment is mandatory during handling.
