Flutec PP6 is a fully-fluorinated, odourless, colourless, non-volatile liquid
which chemically is perfluorodecalin, a mixture of cis and transisomers, C10F18.
Flutec PP6 has the following characteristics:-
- Non-toxic
- Non flammable
- Excellent chemical and thermal stability
- High solubility for gases particularly oxygen.
Although Flutec PP6 is considered biologically and
chemically inert, good laboratory practice should be observed when
handling. Flutec PP6 has an indefinite shelf life if properly stored
in its original sealed container.

* Note: The toxicity rating used is published by Gleason, M N Gosselin,
R E and Hodge, H C (Clinical Toxicology of Commercial Products, Baltimore
1963). 'Practically
Non-Toxic' is the lowest rating of toxicity and relates to
a lethal dose in man of more than 1 kg for a 70 kg (150 lb) man.
