Ditch Water and Oil: Invest in World-Class Heat-Treating Polymer

Fluid Dynamics is the master distributor of DOW® Chemicals’ “UCON” Heat Treating Polymer Technologies. Polymer heat-treatment solutions are taking the metalworking and metallurgy industries by storm, offering a precise and effective quenchant solution to any heat treatment process. With UCON quenches, your facility can perfect heat treatment, minimizing cracks, distortion and product defects. If interested in a consistent and affordable supply of UCON heat-treating polymer, call Fluid Dynamics today.

What Are Heat-Treating Polymers?

UCON quenches are unique because they aren’t a wholly water or oil solution. As a heat-treating polymer, UCON products are designed to replace straight oil and competing glycol polymer technology. Polymer solutions combine oil and water with organic inhibitors and additional additives that produce concentrates. UCON quenches are classified as polyalkylene glycol (PAG), which utilize inverse solubility to produce precise temperature quenching.
