Heat Transfer Fluids | Inhibited Glycol
While water is an economical and thermodynamically superior heat transfer fluid, it suffers from some important deficiencies.
Using properly inhibited heat transfer fluid overcomes these difficulties while preserving the beneficial properties of water.
Properly manufactured heat transfer fluids offer the most effective combination of both corrosion protection and freeze tolerance.
Heat transfer fluids can be made from inhibited ethylene glycol, inhibited propylene glycol, or inhibited ethyl alcohol.
Houghton Chemical’s heat transfer fluid products include SAFE-T-THERM® , WINTREX®, and GeoSafe®.
