Halocarbon® 4.2 Oil is a low molecular weight polymer of chlorotrifluoroethylene (PCTFE) with a low viscosity of 4.2 cSt at 37.8°C.
Halocarbon® 4.2 Oil is a specialty lubricating oil from Halocarbon, formulated through a controlled polymerization process to yield a low-molecular-weight polychlorotrifluoroethylene (PCTFE) fluid with a unique molecular structure. As one of the lower-viscosity inert oils from Halocarbon, it is the ideal fluid for mechanical seal fluids, inert instrument fill fluids, reactive gas services, and more, providing a safe, nonflammable option for these operations. Halocarbon® 4.2 Oil can be used over a wide temperature range of -100°C to 200°C, maintaining stability in demanding conditions. Halocarbon® 4.2 Oil also provides excellent lubricity, good heat transfer properties, and low compressibility.
