Many plastic molding applications require precise temperature control. Localized, electric heating sources often do not provide enough precision to guarantee product quality. As a result, the use of heat transfer fluid has become the industry standard.
Eastman Therminol® heat transfer fluids offer the thermal stability needed to be optimal for molding applications. Reservoirs, molding machines and extruders can be heated to exact temperatures by circulating the heat transfer fluid at a controlled rate.
Elevated temperatures and potential corrosion problems usually prohibit the use of steam because of the relatively small flow passages in the equipment the industry uses. Therminol controls these concerns to deliver quality, consistent results. It also resists corrosion to ensure a longer-lasting system.
Therminol 55 is a synthetic heat transfer fluid designed for moderate-temperature applications in nonpressurized or low-pressure indirect heating systems. It provides efficient and dependable uniform process heat without the need for high pressures.
Therminol 59 is a synthetic heat transfer fluid known for its excellent low-temperature pumping characteristics and thermal stability. It is ideally suited for combination heating and cooling applications, providing effective heat transfer rates even at temperatures as low as 20°C (70°F).
Therminol 62 is a synthetic heat transfer fluid designed with custom chemistry for high performance, purity and low pressure, offering exceptional thermal stability. It is specifically engineered to resist solids formation and prevent system fouling.
Therminol 66 is a high-temperature, liquid-phase heat transfer fluid that remains pumpable at low temperatures and offers exceptional thermal stability. It is specifically engineered to resist solids formation and system fouling, ensuring improved reliability and potential cost savings.
Therminol SP is a synthetic heat transfer fluid for moderate-temperature applications in nonpressurized or low-pressure indirect heating systems. It offers efficient, uniform process heat without high pressures and resists oxidation ten times better than mineral oils.
