Polymer Quenchants at Furnaces North America 2014
September 1, 2014
Tenaxol, part of the Chemtool family of companies, will demonstrate its comprehensive line of UCON brand polymer quenchants at this year's Furnaces North America show being held October 6-8 in Nashville, TN.
"Polymer quenchants were developed by Ross Blackwood, the founder of Tenaxol, in the early 1960s and the first UCON products were patented in 1965 as a safe alternative to oil quenching, owing to its unique polyalkylene glycol chemistry plus corrosion inhibitors," said a company spokesperson. "The products also yield enhanced surface integrity on all ferrous and non-ferrous metals when compared to water quenching, especially in the areas of thermal cracking and distortion. The full range of UCON brand polymer quenchants includes UCON ULTRAQUENCH PLUS, featuring advanced anti-microbial protection and enhanced foam control, plus a non-nitrite corrosion inhibitor for improved surface protection. Additionally, UCON ULTRAQUENCH RL PLUS is designed for quenching medium high-carbon steels and most alloyed grades, including 300 and 400 series stainless."
During the show, Tenaxol personnel will be available to discuss all quenchant applications and metallurgical quench conditions.
