2-Propenoic acid, 2-methyl-, 3,3,4,4,5,5,6,6,7,7,8,8,9,9,10,10,11,11,12,12,13,13,14,14,15,15,16,16,16-nonacosafluorohexadecyl ester

Made for fluorinated polymers and surface treatments; can be present as residual monomer in coated products and released during manufacturing or use [1][2].

Breathing spray mists or dust from treated items, skin contact during application or at work, and eating/drinking contaminated food or water near PFAS sources [1][2].

PFAS persist and can build up in people; exposure to some PFAS is linked with higher cholesterol, immune and liver effects, and developmental impacts, and some (e.g., PFOA) are carcinogenic to humans [1][2][3]. Fluorinated acrylates can degrade into persistent perfluoroalkyl acids [1][2].

Workers making or applying fluorinated coatings; people living near PFAS production or waste sites; pregnant people, infants, and children [1][2].

Choose PFAS‑free products; avoid or carefully use waterproofing/stain‑repellent sprays with good ventilation and protection; damp‑dust and HEPA‑vacuum; check local water and consider certified filters effective for PFAS [1][2][4].
