Synthetic Organic Heat Transfer Fluid for Liquid & Vapor Phase Processes for Applications between (60°F and 750°F).
DOWTHERM™ A is a synthetic organic thermal fluid based on a eutectic mixture of two highly stable compounds (biphenyl (C12H10) and diphenyl oxide (C12H10O)). DOWTHERM™ A can be used in both liquid and vapor phase systems and is suitable for indirect heat transfer applications.
DOWTHERM™ A provides excellent thermal transfer in applications between 15°C and 400°C (60°F and 750°F).
