FC-75 is a fluorocarbon derivative of tetrahydrofuran with the chemical formula C 8 F 16 O. It is practically insoluble in water. It is one of the 3M Fluorinert fluids. It is used as an inert coolant fluid in electronics and other applications, and as a solvent. FC-75 can be synthesized by the same electrochemical fluorination process used to produce PFOA. However, other perfluorinated ether isomers will also result. :H(CH 2 ) 7 COCl + HF → H(CH 2 ) 7 COF + C 7 H 16 + 2C 8 F 16 O + HCl + H 2 A similar fluorocarbon-based coolant and solvent is perfluorohexane.
