THERMINOL 66
Therminol 66 is a high performance highly stable synthetic heat transfer fluid offering extended life and very low top-up rates resulting in reduced running costs and minimal downtime for operations at temperatures up to 345C. Therminol 66 derives its outstanding performance from the unique stability of the polyphenyl structure. Intended for use in systems operating at or near atmospheric pressure, Therminol 66 offers potential savings in both capital and operating costs. Therminol 66 is in use world-wide for many process heating and waste heat recovery applications: resin manufacture, phthalic anhydride distillation, polyester film and fibre production, deodorising fatty acids, phenol production, polyamide polymerisation and extrusion, preheating combustion air in the steel and petrochemical furnaces.
Thermal Stability
The thermal stability of a heat transfer fluid is one of the most important considerations in the selection of a fluid for operation under specific heat transfer conditions. Therminol 66 has made its reputation for its outstanding stability in operation. Fluid decomposition, both for mineral oil and synthetic hydrocarbon based heat transfer fluids, generally results in the formation of volatile products (low boilers) and polymeric high viscosity fractions (high boilers). The relative proportion of low and high boiler formation and solubility of the high boiling fractions may vary widely, and are critical factors when evaluating fluid performance, predicting topup costs and the overall risk of deposits or coking. The chemical composition of Therminol 66 has been carefully selected to minimise the formation of low boilers and eliminate the risk of insoluble high boiler formation and fouling, provided proper attention is given to system design, and operation is within the maximum bulk and film temperatures specified below.
