Used as high-performance solvents in electronic and semiconductor manufacturing due to excellent thermal stability and non-flammability. Employed in the formulation of fluorinated fluids for heat transfer and cooling applications, especially in sensitive equipment. Acts as a carrier fluid in chemical processes involving strong oxidizers or reactive gases because of its inert nature. Also utilized in specialty coatings and surface treatments where water and oil repellency are required. Its low surface tension and chemical resistance make it suitable for use in seals, gaskets, and O-rings in aggressive environments.
