Uses:Hexafluoroisopropanol is used to produce high-end chemicals, such as fluorinated surfactants, fluorinated emulsifier and fluorinated medicine, etc. HFIP is used as a solvent or cleaner in electronic industry.

1,1,1,3,3,3-Hexafluoro-2-propanol effects the native state of proteins, denaturing them as well as stabilizing the α-helical conformation of unfolded proteins and polypeptides.

It is used as a polar solvent and exhibits strong hydrogen bonding properties.It dissolves substances that are hydrogen-bond acceptors, such as amides, ethers and a wide range of polymers, including those that are not soluble in the most common organic solvents.

Usually used for preparing hexafluoroalcohol-functionalized methacrylate polymers for lithographic/nanopatterning materials.
