Abstract

Disclosed is an emulsion formed using, as an emulsifier, 0.01 to 30 parts by weight of a perfluoroalkylethyl phosphonic acid salt represented by the general formula: C n F 2n+1 CH 2 CH 2 P(O)(OM 1 )(OM 2 ) [III] (M 1 : a hydrogen atom, ammonium salt, or organic amine salt, M 2 : an ammonium salt or organic amine salt, n: 1 to 6), based on 100 parts by weight of a perfluoropolyether oil represented by the general formula: RfO(C 3 F 6 O) p (C 2 F 4 O), (CF 2 O), Rf′ [I] (Rf and Rf′: C 1 -C 5 perfluoroalkyl groups, p+q+r: 2 to 200) or the general formula: F(CF 2 CF 2 CF 2 O) n CF 2 CF 3 [II](n: 2 to 100), or a perfluorocarbon compound. In spite of using, as an emulsifier, a compound having a perfluoroalkyl group containing 6 or less carbon atoms, which is said to have low bioaccumulation potential, the emulsion exhibits excellent emulsification stability, and therefore can be effectively used as a surface-treating agent, such as a mold-releasing agent.

First claim

The invention claimed is:

1. An emulsion formed using an emulsifier aqueous solution comprising a perfluoroalkylethyl phosphonic acid salt represented by the general formula:
C n F 2n+1 CH 2 CH 2 P(O)(OM 1 )(OM 2 )  [III]

wherein M 1 is a hydrogen atom or a triethylamino group, M 2 is a triethylamino group, and n is an integer of 1 to 6, and
a perfluoropolyether oil represented by the general formula:
RfO[CF(CF 3 )CF 2 O] m Rf′

wherein Rf and Rf′ are perfluoro-lower alkyl groups having 1 to 5 carbon atoms and m is an integer of 2 to 200, which perfluoropolyether oil is combined with the emulsion aqueous solution,
wherein 0.01 to 30 parts by weight of the perfluoroalkylethyl phosphonic acid salt is used based on 100 parts by weight of the perfluoropolyether oil.

2. The emulsion according to claim 1 , wherein the emulsion is diluted with an aqueous medium so as to have a solid matters content of 0.01 to 30 wt. %.

3. A surface-treating agent comprising an aqueous solution in which the perfluoropolyether oil emulsion according to claim 1 is diluted with an aqueous medium.
