2 T H E R M I N O L H E A T T R A N S F E R F L U I D S B Y S O L U T I A Solutia offers a family of Therminol heat-stable fluids developed specifically for indirect transfer of process heat. Therminol heat transfer fluids can meet the operating needs of virtually any single or multiple station heat-using system. In properly designed systems, these heat transfer fluids will perform within their respective temperature ranges for extended periods without breakdown or corrosion. Therminol heat transfer fluids, available in various types and operating ranges, all provide superior benefits economy, efficient operation, minimum maintenance and precise temperature control. Contact Solutia for detailed performance information on specific Therminol heat transfer fluids.

3 Phase Heat Transfer Fluids Therminol liquid phase heat transfer fluids operate over the broad temperature range of -175 F to 75 (-115 C to 40) and are designed to be used in non-pressurized systems. A major advantage of liquid heat transfer is lower cost installation and operation. Capital cost is reduced by elimination of largediameter piping, safety valves, steam traps and water treatment facilities. Operating cost is reduced by low maintenance requirements and reduced makeup. Therminol VLT, D-12, XP, 55, 59, 62, 66, 72 and 75 heat transfer fluids are typical liquid phase media available from Solutia. /Vapor Phase Heat Transfer Fluids Therminol LT, VP-1 and VP-3 are Solutia s liquid/vapor phase heat transfer fluids. They offer a broad operating temperature range and uniform heat transfer. Other major benefits include precise temperature control and low mechanical maintenance costs. Also, a heat transfer system that utilizes a vapor phase medium requires less fluid than a comparable liquid phase system because the equipment fills with vapor instead of liquid.
