Galden® High boiling point (HB)
Galden® HT High Boiling Fluids are insulating fluids with a boiling point range of 170 to 270 ˚C and are a family of high performance heat transfer fluids designed for high temperature applications. Due to its high boiling point, evaporation losses are significantly lower than lower boiling point fluids.
Galden® High Boiling Point (HB) fluids can be used at intermediate temperatures and can be used in place of fluids with high evaporative losses to reduce evaporative losses.

Comparison of losses due to evaporation
According to JIS C2101 test method
(After 8 hours at 40℃)
