The present invention relates to novel compounds containing CF3O end groups, to the use thereof as surface-active substances, and to processes for the preparation of these compounds.
Fluorosurfactants have an outstanding ability to reduce surface tension, which is utilised, for example, in the hydrophobicisation of surfaces, for example of textiles, paper, glass, building materials or adsorbents. In addition, it is possible to use them as interface promoter or emulsifier or viscosity reducer in paints, surface coatings or adhesives.
In general, fluorosurfactants contain perfluoroalkyl substituents, which are degraded to perfluoroalkylcarboxylic acids (PFCAs) and -sulfonic acids (PFASs) in the environment by biological and/or other oxidation processes. In recent years, the accumulation of perfluoroalkylcarboxylic acids (PFCAs) and perfluoroalkylsulfonic acids (PFASs) in nature has given cause for concern. PFCAs and PFASs are highly persistent compounds whose long-chain variants (containing perfluoroalkyl chains of 8 or more carbon atoms) have a bioaccumulative potential. They are in some cases suspected of causing health problems (G. L. Kennedy, Jr., J. L. Butenhoff, G. W. Olsen, J. C. O'Connor, A. M. Seacat, R. G. Biegel, S. R. Murphy, D. G. Farrar, Critical Review in Toxicology, 2004, 34, 351-384).
Sulfosuccinates and/or sulfotricarballylates containing various fluorinated side chains are described in U.S. Pat. No. 4,968,599, U.S. Pat. No. 4,988,610 and U.S. Pat. No. 6,890,608 and in A. R. Pitt et al., Colloids and Surfaces A: Physicochemical and Engineering Aspects, 1996, 114, 321-335; A. R. Pitt, Progr. Colloid Polym. Sci., 1997, 103, 307-317 and Z.-T. Liu et al., Ind. Eng. Chem. Res. 2007, 46, 22-28.
The Omnova company markets polymers whose side chains contain terminal CF3 or C2F5 groups. International Patent Application WO 03/010128 describes perfluoroalkyl-substituted amines, acids, amino acids and thio-ether acids which contain a C3-20-perfluoroalkyl group.
JP-A-2001/133984 discloses surface-active compounds containing perfluoroalkoxy chains which are suitable for use in antireflection coatings. JP-A-09/111286 discloses the use of perfluoropolyether surfactants in emulsions.
The earlier German Patent Application DE 102005000858 describes compounds which carry at least one terminal pentafluorosulfuranyl group or at least one terminal trifluoromethoxy group and contain a polar end group, are surface-active and are suitable as surfactants.
There continues to be a demand for alternative surface-active substances, preferably having a property profile comparable to that of classical fluoro-surfactants and equally great chemical versatility, which are preferably not degraded to long-chain persistent fluorocarboxylic or fluorosulfonic acids on oxidative or reductive degradation or are preferably effective as conventional fluorosurfactants in relatively low dosage.

The static surface tensions γ of aqueous surfactant solutions having various concentrations (weight percentages) are determined.
Instrument: Sinterface tensiometer (model PAT1)
Temperature of the measurement solutions: room temperature
Measurement method employed: measurement of the surface tension on hanging droplets against air. The principal radii of curvature (r1 and r2) of the ellipsoids (droplets) are determined here by droplet contour analysis. Since the pressure difference (Ap) between the outside and inside of an interface is indirectly proportional to the radii of curvature, the surface tension can be calculated from the following correlation:
Instrument settings: droplet volumes 7-10 mm3; measurement time 1500-3600 s; 1.5 pictures/s, droplet density=1 g/cm3
Table 1 shows the static surface tension y of an aqueous solution of the sulfosuccinate according to Example 1b) as a function of the concentration c.
Table 2 shows the static surface tension γ of an aqueous solution of the sulfotricarballylate according to Example 2b) as a function of the concentration c.
Table 3 shows the static surface tension γ of an aqueous solution of the sulfosuccinate according to Example 3b) as a function of the concentration c.
Table 4 shows the static surface tension γ of an aqueous solution of the sulfotricarballylate according to Example 4b) as a function of the concentration c.
The dynamic surface tensions 7 of 0.1% (weight percentage) aqueous solutions of compounds 2b), 3b) and 4b) are determined.
Measurement method employed: measurement of the surface tension using the bubble pressure method
Instrument: SITA tensiometer (model t 60)
Temperature of the measurement solutions: 26° C.±0.2° C. (Example 6c);
21° C.±0.1° C. (Examples 6a and 6b)
In the measurement of the dynamic surface tension, air bubbles are forced through a capillary into the surfactant solution at different rates. From the resultant pressure change, the surface tension can be determined as a function of the bubble life using the following equation:
pmax=maximum pressure, ρ=density of the liquid, h=immersion depth, r=radius of the capillary
The measurement values are shown in Tables 5-7.
Table 5 shows the dynamic surface tension γ of a 0.1% aqueous solution of the sulfotricarballylate according to Example 2b) as a function of the bubble life.
Table 6 shows the dynamic surface tension γ of a 0.1% aqueous solution of the sulfosuccinate according to Example 3b) as a function of the bubble life.
Table 7 shows the dynamic surface tension γ of a 0.1% aqueous solution of the sulfotricarballylate according to Example 4b) as a function of the bubble life.
A surface coating is prepared from the raw materials according to Table 8 in which surface defects (pits) are generated specifically by overdosing the antifoam BYK 023. A highly concentrated solution (39.05% by weight) of the sulfotricarballylate according to Example 2b in Dowanol PM (Dow Chemicals) is incorporated into the surface coating in various amounts and compared in efficacy to the 0 sample (without sulfotricarballylate).
In the preparation of the contaminated surface-coating sample, firstly binder, pigment paste and water are initially introduced (Table 9a; PE beaker: 860 ml), and some of the initially introduced mixture is subsequently completed (Table 9b; PE beaker 350 ml).
For incorporation of the surfactant solution, the latter is firstly initially introduced (PE beaker, 175 ml), and the amount of surface coating is subsequently based on the weight of surfactant. Three test coatings having a different surfactant content or without surfactant are prepared (Table 10).
The surface coatings are applied to white paint cards (219×286 mm; manufacturer: Leneta) with the aid of an automatic film applicator (vacuum suction) with a film applicator frame (capacity: 4 ml of surface coating; 20 ml spraying; application rate: 50 mm/s; wet-layer thickness: 30 μm). Surface-coating sample 2 is virtually free of surface defects (pits) and surface-coating sample 3 is completely free of surface defects, whereas surface-coating sample 1 exhibits numerous surface defects (pits).
