Halocarbon 0.8 Oil
Halocarbon 0.8 Oil
Low Viscosity | Ready-to-Use Formulation
Halocarbon 0.8 Oil, expertly crafted utilizing Halocarbon PCTFE Technology, emerges as a superior specialty fluid for low temperature calibration applications. This low molecular weight polymer of chlorotrifluoroethylene is distinguished by its exceptional properties, including a remarkable capacity for thermal heat transfer and consistent fluidity in extreme cold environments, particularly effective around -100°C. The oil’s non-flammability, chemical inertness, and safety in handling, especially in the presence of reactive gases, Lewis acids, and aggressive oxidizers, render it ideal for intricate calibration tasks.
With its broad operating range from -100°C to +70°C and a low pour point of -200°F (-129°C), it excels in renowned low-temperature calibration systems like Fluke 7380, Fluke 7381, Fluke 7081, and Kaye CTR-80, functioning as an inert low-temperature bath fluid.
Additionally, Halocarbon 0.8 replaces perchloroethylene in metallurgical coal float sink testing, valued for its non-toxic, non-flammable, and chemically inert properties, ensuring accurate and safe coal quality assessments critical in steel production. Its adaptability as an inert process solvent and in avoiding solvent-induced reactions in coal testing underscores its role in enhancing safety, precision, and regulatory compliance across various sectors.
