- TFE or trifluoroethyl alcohol, this colourless, water-miscible liquid has a smell reminiscent of ethanol.
- Trifluoroethanol is produced industrially by hydrogenation or the hydride reduction of derivatives of trifluoroacetic acid, such as the esters or acid chloride.
- Uses :- A non-aqueous co-solvent that serves as tool to study protein folding. It is also used in various pharmaceutical, chemical and engineering applications.
- Oxidation of trifluoroethanol yields trifluoroacetaldehyde or trifluoroacetic acid.
- TFEA As A Solvent :- TFEA is miscible with many oxygen Containing Compounds such As water, alcohols, ethers and ketones.It also dissolves certain Aromatic Compounds such As Benzene and Toluene
- Energy Fields :-TFEA exhibits Both Extremely Tough Stability as well desirable thermodynamic Properties.TFEA has only found limited use in waste thermal energy recovery systems
