Marlotherm® LH: synthetic organic heat transfer medium

Marlotherm® LH is a low-viscosity, synthetic organic heat transfer medium designed for use in both liquid and vapor phases within closed, forced-circulation heat transfer systems. Known for its thermal stability, Marlotherm® LH delivers reliable and consistent performance at temperatures up to 330°C over a long period of time. It is recommended that Marlotherm® LH be blanketed with an atmosphere of inert gas to protect against the effects of fluid oxidation on its performance and life expectancy.
