What is Perfluorodecalin (PFD)?
Perfluorodecalin (PFD) is a synthetic perfluorocarbon (a compound made only of carbon and fluorine) that acts as an inert, heavy liquid capable of dissolving large amounts of gases, especially oxygen.
It’s used in cosmetics for its ability to deliver oxygen to the skin, in chemistry as a solvent for fluorous systems, and in medicine as an oxygen carrier for artificial blood substitutes and in treatments for wound healing.

What are applications of Perfluorodecalin (PFD) ?
Perfluorodecalin (PFD) is used in medicine as a temporary vitreous substitute in eye surgery, as an oxygen carrier to deliver oxygen to hypoxic tissues for wound healing, and for tissue preservation. In cosmetics, it’s used in serums and moisturizers to deliver oxygen to the skin, promote skin health, and reduce signs of aging. Its high oxygen-carrying capacity and inert, non-toxic properties make it versatile, though it is currently not approved as an artificial blood.
-
Ophthalmology:
PFD serves as a temporary vitreous substitute during complex eye surgeries, such as those for retinal detachment or dislocated lenses, helping to stabilize and flatten the retina.
-
Wound Healing:
It is used to deliver oxygen to hypoxic, or oxygen-deprived, tissues, which can accelerate wound healing and is beneficial for ocular chemical burns.
-
Tissue Preservation:
PFD’s ability to carry oxygen makes it useful for preserving organs and tissues, such as pancreas transplants, for longer periods.
In Cosmetics and Skincare
-
Oxygen Delivery:PFD acts as an oxygen carrier, dissolving and delivering oxygen into the skin. This can combat anaerobic bacteria that thrive in low-oxygen environments, potentially helping with conditions like acne and rosacea.
-
Skin Health & Anti-Aging:By increasing oxygenation, it improves skin metabolism and overall health. It may also help with skin plumping, reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
-
Products:It is found in various cosmetic products like facial serums, moisturizers, gels, and bubble masks.
-
Microscopy:
PFD can enhance the resolution of confocal microscopy by improving optical qualities and minimizing physiological impact on living tissues.
-
Drug Delivery:It can be used to suspend microparticulate drug suspensions in packaging, preventing sediment solidification and improving resuspension.
