Thermal fluids (aka thermal oils, thermic fluids, thermo fluids, heat transfer fluids, heat transfer oils, hot oils, thermic oils or thermo oils.) are specialized liquids used to transfer heat from one point to another in various industrial processes, including chemical processing, oil and gas refining, and power generation. Designed to operate at high temperatures they can provide efficient and reliable heat transfer, even under extreme conditions. Selecting the right transfer fluid depends on its thermal properties, which include its viscosity, heat capacity, the heating system it’s used in, and the application itself.  When dealing with complex applications that may have multiple heat transfer options and therefore specific calculations may be required. Factors such as the temperature and pressure requirements of the application, combined with the thermal properties of a fluid and the limitations of the heater need to be considered. There are different types of thermal fluids including water, glycol, organic (derived from petroleum) and synthetic (produced from advanced chemical processes) offered under respective brands of their producers such as Eastman (Therminol®/Marlotherm®), Dow Chemical (Dowtherm™), ExxonMobil (Mobiltherm™), and others.

Key properties of heat transfer fluids include thermal stability, low viscosity, high flash and fire points, and low toxicity helping to ensure safe and reliable operation of heat transfer systems. Their selection depends on various factors, including the operating temperature range, heat transfer efficiency requirements, system design, and safety considerations.

Sourced from quality producers, thermal fluids are offered as part of our own labelled (AVIATIONEU NEW ERA) product lines in different grades and packaging options including 210-Liter drums and 26-Liter pails. Based on different blends, AVIATIONEU NEW ERA heat transfer fluids can be used for heating and cooling processes in a variety of industrial applications resulting in economy, efficient operations, minimum maintenance, and precise temperature control.  Indicative industries of their application include: hydrocarbon processing (oil and gas, natural gas, refining, etc.), plastics processing, chemical processing, pharmaceuticals, food & beverage processing, renewable energies and many others.

CHEMETALL® is the brand for the Surface Treatment global business unit of BASF's Coatings division & a leading supplier of applied surface treatment technologies for metal, plastic & glass substrates.

CHEMETALL® ARDROX® 185 Series colorless scale/rust removers have a greater than 12.5 pH level and a relative density of 1.43. The series includes 185L, a highly alkaline concentrated solution in water containing sequestrants and 185 water soluble powder offering a strong alkaline solution containing sequestrants. They can be used to remove rust and scale from iron and steel  in immersion tanks but also oil, grease and some air-dried paints.  They will not attack or cause hydrogen embrittlement in ferrous alloys and there is markedly less tendency for re-rusting to occur than with acid pickling.

ARDROX® 185L is usually used at a concentration of 30-50% by volume in water, depending on the amount of rust or scale to be removed. This corresponds to a concentration of 200 - 375 g/L of ARDROX® 185 in water. ARDROX® 185 must always be dissolved in cold water. There will be an exothermic reaction and the solution will heat up to 50-60°C / 120-140°F. The ARDROX® 185L is applied by immersion between 82 and 93°C (180 and 200°F). Agitate with mechanical agitation, do not use air agitation.

The immersion time will vary according to the degree of contamination, light rust being removed in approximately 10 minutes while heavy rust may take about an hour. If the components are heavily contaminated with oil or grease, the life of the ARDROX® 185L  bath will be prolonged if they are first degreased (e.g. with an ARDROX 6-series product).

When used in conjunction with the adequate other ARDROX® specialties (sold separately), ARDROX® 185L can be used to remove scale from hot-end jet engine components. It can also be used for cleaning parts made of titanium.

Thorough water rinsing must take place after the use of ARDROX® 185L. If no further immediate surface treatment is to follow, the use of a dewatering and protective fluid such as an ARDROX® 3-series is desirable to give protection from re-rusting.

The ARDROX® 185L  comes in a 5-gallon and 180-liter containers while the 185 powder in 25 kg bags.

EXXONMOBIL® MOBIL™ AERO Series Aviation Hydraulic Fluids includes AERO HFA, HF, and HFS hydraulic fluids offered for aircraft systems where use of hydrocarbon hydraulic fluids is required. 

They are low viscosity, high VI (viscosity index) fluids with excellent low temperature properties, good anti-wear performance, and good chemical stability.

MOBIL™ AERO  HFA is a premium quality fluid that meets the requirements of the U.S. Military specification MIL-H-5606A (obsolete). It has a very high VI and is suitable for use at temperatures down to -54 ˚C (-65 ˚F). While this quality fluid is no longer used by the US Military, it is still used in some older, small private, and small commercial aircraft. It is also used in industrial and commercial equipment requiring good fluidity at very low temperatures, where MOBIL™ AERO  HFA provides long, trouble-free service over a wide range of

operating conditions.

MOBIL™ AERO HF is a premium quality fluid that is approved against the most current version of U.S. Military specification MIL-PRF-5606. It has physical properties very similar to MOBIL™ AERO HFA, and also meets “super-clean” requirements required by modern aircraft hydraulic systems. It is intended primarily for military aircraft. It is also used as a hydraulic fluid for small private and small commercial aircraft, and as a strut fluid in landing gear of large commercial aircraft. It is approved as a NATO Code Number H-515 fluid.

MOBIL™ AERO HFA and HF are composed of mineral oil base stocks and contain shear-stable VI improvers.

MOBIL™ AERO HFS is a synthetic polyalphaolefin lubricant that is approved against the most current version of U.S. Military specification MIL-PRF-83282. It does not contain a VI improver. It is designed for use at temperatures down to -40˚C (-40˚F). It provides better flammability and volatility, improved stability, but has a higher viscosity at low temperature than MOBIL™ AERO HF. It meets the “super-clean” requirements. It is intended primarily for US Military aircraft. It is approved as a NATO Code Number H-537 fluid.

HYDRANSAFE HFA E3 features an excellent stability overtime, good antiwear properties, excellent anti foam properties, good anti-corrosion, anti-rust properties even with a soft water, and good resistance to bacterial growth. HYDRANSAFE  HFA-S5 solution has a very low foam tendency and is compatible with the usual type of elastomers used in HFA type of hydraulic installations (ISO 6072 NBR and FKM). Provides excellent protection against corrosion to metals normally used in hydraulic systems (ISO IP 287) and features a high resistance to bacterial and fungal growth. Its durability reduces maintenance - with service intervals longer than mineral oil based HFA emulsions (type HFAE fluids).

HYDRANSAFE HFC-E 46 & HFC-E 68 are non flammable (fire resistant) & biodegradable  water based hydraulic fluids, boosted in antiwear and anti corrosion additives to match mineral based performances on pump tests and replace standard mineral oils with equal equipment protection. Both are intended for use in applications in Steel, Automotive Manufacturing, Mining, Aluminium, Construction Equipment and Mining industries. Designed to work on all kind of hydraulics pumps in various conditions, in mobile and stationary equipment. Ultimately biodegradable to facilitate usage in sensitive areas such as undergournd mining, agriculture, tunelling etc. they provide superior fire protection compared with standard HM or HFDU oils without compromising mechanical performances. They absorb water enabling usage in environments subject to high water contamination.

HYDRANSAFE HFDU 46, HFDU 68, and HFDU LC 168 Biodegradable hydraulic oils are recommended in the event of incidental leaks into the environment. They feature  considerable fire resistance, and exceptional lubricating properties which guarantee a substantial reduction in wear, and therefore a longer service life of the hydraulic components. They exhibit a high flash point and high spontaneous ignition temperature, low pour-point providing good performances at low temperature, very good anticorrosion properties enhanced service life, and a very high natural viscosity index guaranteeing a viscosity constantly adapted to the temperature range in which the fluid must be used. Operating temperature: -10 °C to +70 °C on a continuous basis, +120 °C at peak periods.
