Introduction
FluoSolv® Performance Fluid PF‑5052 is a clear, colorless, fully-fluorinated fluid optimized for medium-temperature heat transfer and precision solvent applications. Engineered to meet or exceed the performance of the 3M™ original, it offers exceptional thermal and chemical stability, non-flammability, and low toxicity.
Key Features & Benefits
- Chemically and thermally stable – Maintains consistent fluid performance even under high-temperature or long-duration use.
- Practically non-toxic – Demonstrates very low acute and sub-chronic toxicity, making it safe for handling when proper protocols are followed.
- Nonflammable – Offers a significant safety advantage in applications requiring low fire risk.
- Wide liquid temperature range – Boiling point at approximately 50 °C and pour point as low as –80 °C support versatile operating conditions.
- Excellent compatibility – Works well with most metals, plastics, and elastomers, easing integration into existing systems.
- Effective solvent properties – Especially useful for depositing or removing fluorinated oils and lubricants.
- Non-conductive – Safe for use in electrical and electronic cooling applications.
Applications
- Heat Transfer Media in cooling systems operating in moderate temperature ranges
- Solvent Deposition or Removal of fluorinated lubricants and oils - ideal for electronics or delicate cleaning scenarios
Material Compatibility
FluoSolv® PF‑5052 is compatible with most metals, plastics, and elastomers, facilitating safe use across a broad range of equipment materials.
