Solvay Galden® is a high-performance range of perfluoropolyether (PFPE) thermal transfer fluid. Solvay designed it for the demanding thermal needs of the semiconductor and electronics industries.
Key Features of Galden® Thermal Transfer Fluid
- Non-flammable and chemically inert
- Zero ozone depletion potential
- Perfect for vapour phase soldering
Safe and Stable
Galden® fluids are chemically inert, non-flammable and non-toxic. In addition, they offer excellent dielectric properties and high thermal stability across a wide range of operating temperatures.
They also resist oxidation and thermal breakdown. As a result, performance stays consistent over time.
The Medium for Vapour Phase Soldering
Galden® is the primary medium in vapour phase soldering. Its precise boiling point creates a saturated vapour zone. Therefore, heat transfers evenly across the whole assembly.
Beyond Soldering
Many manufacturers also rely on the fluid for reliability testing, such as thermal shock and hermetic seal testing. For example, it is a common choice in heat exchangers for sensitive electronic equipment.
Why Choose This Thermal Transfer Fluid?
With zero ozone depletion potential, Galden® is a safe and more sustainable option. Moreover, it delivers highly efficient cooling and heating for mission-critical applications.
Because of this, aerospace, defence and high-power electronics manufacturers trust it every day. In short, it gives you dependable thermal control where failure is not an option.
