There are ongoing developments in heat transfer fluids for high-temperature applications, though the specific advancements might not be termed as “new” in recent years. However, existing high-performance fluids continue to be refined and utilized effectively:
- Therminol 68: This fluid is known for its excellent thermal stability and is used in high-temperature liquid phase applications. While not necessarily a recent development, it remains a top choice for many high-temperature applications.
- DOWTHERM A: Introduced decades ago, DOWTHERM A continues to set industry standards for high-temperature heat transfer up to 400°C (750°F). Its reliability and thermal stability make it a staple in many industries.
- Dynalene Heat Transfer Fluids: Dynalene offers a range of high-temperature fluids suitable for use above 350°F up to 662°F (177°C to 350°C), providing versatility for various applications.
In terms of new advancements, there is a focus on sustainability and improving thermal stability, but specific recent breakthroughs are not highlighted in the provided information. The industry continues to rely on established high-performance fluids, with ongoing research likely aimed at enhancing their properties and environmental sustainability.
For the latest developments, consulting specific industry reports or academic journals would be beneficial.
