Chemical manufacturing

Several well-known chemical processes use Eastman Therminol® heat transfer fluids as a heating medium. Linear alkylbenzene (LAB), phthalic anhydride (PA), terephthalic acid (PTA), dimethyl terephthalate (DMT), olefins, alcohols, plasticizers, and a variety of other petrochemicals have heat transfer systems as an integral part of their processes. A central heating and circulating system with multiple users provides temperature control for different stages in the reaction, separation, and purification of the various products. The chemical industry around the world has relied on Therminol liquid- and vapor-phase heat transfer fluids to provide long-term, trouble-free performance in heat transfer systems that are critical to the success of their operations.

Therminol 54 is a synthetic fluid designed to provide reliable, consistent heat transfer performance over a long service life at maximum bulk temperatures up to 280°C (540°F).

Therminol 62 is a synthetic heat transfer fluid whose chemistry is custom contoured for high-performance, high-purity, low-pressure and exceptional thermal stability.

Therminol 66 is the world’s most popular high temperature, liquid-phase heat transfer fluid. Therminol 66 is pumpable at low temperatures, and offers high-temperature thermal stability.

Therminol 68 is a high temperature liquid phase heat transfer fluid with excellent thermal stability. Therminol 68 was developed for use at temperatures up to 360° C (680°F) in liquid phase heat transfer fluid systems. Therminol 68 has a boiling point of 308°C (586°F), but static pressure of about 2 bar should maintain the liquid phase at high temperatures.

Therminol 72 is an ultra-high temperature liquid phase heat transfer fluid having excellent thermal stability. Therminol 72 was developed for use at temperatures up to 380°C (720°F) in liquid phase heat transfer systems.

Therminol 75 synthetic heat transfer fluid is a ultra-high temperature liquid phase heat transfer fluid having excellent thermal stability.

Therminol VP-1 heat transfer fluid is an ultra-high temperature synthetic heat transfer fluid designed to meet the demanding requirements of vapor phase systems or liquid phase systems.
