Ethanol is the solvent for both organic coating solutions.
In fact they are very dilute solutions of expensive coating reagents:
Eg, to prepare the HDFT solution I solve 100 milligrams of HDFT in 200
milliliters of ethanol.

Jakob hello, for those two coating solutions ( 11 mercaptoundecanol and
hdft) you said in ethanol. does that mean you mixed them with ethanol???
please reply asap

Jakob Fuchs says:

HDFT ist
1H,1H,2H,2H-Perfluorodecanethiol;
it´s available from Sigma-Aldrich and other producers of research
chemicals.

i need to make, superhydrophobic liquid, for my science fair, would you
like to help me with the materials and procedure, i really need your help

youvoctube says:

What is HDFT? Where can you buy it?

Taylor Hernikl says:

My house burned down when i was trying to make this stuff, thanks!
