Abstract
For formulation of perfluorocarbon-emulsions (PFC-emulsions) of second generation new perfluorocarbons (F-dimorpholines, F-dipiperidines and F-cyclohexylmorpholine) were synthesized, acting both as oxygen carriers and as interfacial active compounds (IFACs). The stabilizing effect of these IFACs is interpreted and a new theory is introduced. Also new classes of fluorosurfactants were synthesized and tested for biocompatibility. In PFC mixtures compounds of the type RFRH (RF=CmF2m+1, RH=CnH2n+1 are acting as IFACs but also as anchor-groups for lipophilic surfactants.Keywords
