Abstract
We describe ultrahigh Vacuum studies of a perfluoropolyether analog, p erfluorodiethoxymethane (PFDEM), interacting with a partially fluorina ted nickel surface. Results of temperature-programmed desorption studi es show that PFDEM does not undergo C-F bond cleavage and subsequent f ormation of nickel-fluorine bonds. The use of a defect-rich surface ha s no effect on the results.
