The present invention relates to an unsaturated fluorinated ether or amine compound of formula (I) with low global warming potential and method of making the compound (I), where R.sub.H.sup.1 is and R.sub.H.sup.2 are independently selected from H or CH.sub.3, wherein when R.sub.H.sup.1 is CH.sub.3 then R.sub.H.sup.2 is H and when R.sub.H.sup.2 is CH.sub.3, then R.sub.H.sup.1 is H; X is O or N and when X is O, then n is 1 and R.sub.f is a linear or branched perfluorinated alkyl group comprising 1-10 carbon atoms and optionally comprising at least one catenated O or N atom; X is N, then n is 2 and (i) each R.sub.f is independently selected from a linear or branched perfluorinated alkyl group comprising 1-8 carbon atoms and optionally comprising at least one catenated O or N atom, or (ii) the two R.sub.f's are bonded together to form a ring structure optionally comprising at least one catenated O or N atom, wherein the ring of the ring structure consists of 5-7 atoms, no more than 10 carbon atoms, and is perfluorinated. The applications of the compound include solvent cleaning, electrolyte solvents or additives, heat transfer, and vapour phase soldering.

A brass-plated steel cord 1A is immersed in an organic solvent 13. The steel cord that was immersed in the organic solvent 13 is immersed in an aqueous alkaline solution 22. Next, the steel cord 1A that was immersed in the aqueous alkaline solution 22 is immersed in an aqueous silane coupling solution 32. Finally, the steel cord 1A that was immersed in the aqueous silane coupling solution 32 is heated. Thus is manufactured a steel cord 1B equipped with the silane coupling agent, wherein the silane coupling agent is excellently bonded to the surface.

A method of cleaning a pipeline is performed by introducing a treatment composition comprising a colloidal particle dispersion having inorganic nanoparticles with an average particle size of from 500 nm or less into an interior of a pipeline to be cleaned. A pig or body is passed through the pipeline to spread the composition upon surfaces of the interior of the pipeline. The composition and materials adhering to the surfaces of the interior of the pipeline are removed to facilitate cleaning of the pipeline
