EUROTHERM 240 AND THERMINOL VP-3 COMPARISON AS SYNTHETIC HEAT TRANSFER FLUIDS
Chemie Eurotherm 240
Product Description：
Chemie Eurotherm 240 is a Synthetic aromatic hydrocarbon-based high-temperature heat transfer fluid for both liquid and vapor phase applications, recommended for use in the temperature range of 2.0°C to 330°C. The normal boiling point is 244°C, which is 13°C lower than the normal boiling point of 257°C for Diphyl and Eurotherm 400 (a mixture of diphenyl and diphenyl ether). It is suitable for liquid phase heating systems operating between 2.0°C and 330°C, or for vapor phase heating systems operating between 244°C and 330°C.
Recommended Application Temperature：-2～330℃
Recommended application industries:
Polyamide, polyester/polyamide composite fibers, PTT fibers, PBT fibers, T400 elastic composite fibers, polyurethane cotton-like elastic fibers, PE/PA6 ultrafine composite filaments, etc., for differentiated high-speed spinning box bodies (spinning temperature around 250–290°C).
Packaging: 200KG/galvanized drum
Storage: Store in a cool, ventilated area away from sunlight and UV exposure.
