Information About

Fluorinert




Fluorinert™ is used in situations where air will not carry away enough heat, or where airflow is so restricted that some sort of forced pumping is required anyway. One example of Fluorinert™ use was the Cray-2 Supercomputer , which had a large backlit "waterfall" to cool the fluid after passing through the CPU.


ENVIRONMENTAL CONCERNS

Though Fluorinert™ poses no Ozone Depletion potential, since it contains no Chlorine atoms, it does have a high Global Warming Potential due to its long atmospheric lifetime and should be carefully handled to minimize atmospheric emissions.
