| Heat Transfer Fluids Control Temperature in Formation
of Unique Plastics Additives
Specialty Plastics Company Polyvisions, Inc. creates
unique, pelletized additives their customers use to make finished plastic products.
Paratherm NF® heat transfer fluid tightly controls production temperatures
in Polyvision's continuous processors, jacketed ribbon blenders, and extruders
that process pigments, nucleating agents, lubricants and surface modifiers.
The high-temperature NF fluid delivers the reliability, uniformity and
superior performance necessary across the variety of processing conditions in
this specialty business. READ

CAD + Quick Change Machinery + Thermal Oil = Fast Prototypes
+ Quality Short-Run Parts
Urgent Plastics Company demanded precision in temperature
control and uniformity to improve the accuracy and performance of their tools
during the molding process. Over 5 years ago they charged Paratherm HE® High-Flash-Point
heat transfer fluid into their presses and since then, no change-out, no
breakdown or sludging. READ MORE...

For temperature control in molding, extrusion, press heating, line tracing, and coating rolls, Paratherm Corporation manufactures several specialized heat transfer fluids— and a liquid cleaner for hot-oil units .
Paratherm NF® heat transfer fluid is non-fouling, and non-toxic. It is commonly specified in electrically heated temperature control units for molding applications.
Paratherm OR® heat transfer fluid is non-sludging and oxidation resistant. Its unique combination of a thermally stable base stock with proprietary antioxidant additive makes it a common choice for applications where tools are frequently changed or air is otherwise routinely contacting the hot oil.
Paratherm MR® heat transfer fluid is for single-fluid heating and cooling, and is specially formulated for temperature control in Blowmolding applications.
Paratherm SC® system cleaning liquid is expressly formulated to dissolve and suspend sludge and carbon lumps frequently produced in hot oil temperature control units |

Fluoropolymer Compounding Requires Tight Heat Tolerances
in Two-Roll Mills
AGC Chemicals Americas develops fluoroelastomer and
melt-processable compounds for new automotive, wire and cable, petrochemical,
industrial and aerospace applications. Roll heat tolerances as tight as ±5ºF
require precise control across the full heat/cool cycle. Because of this, the
mill manufacturer recommended Paratherm NF heat transfer fluid. READ
