UCON Quenchant A A New Quenching Fluid

UCON Quenchant A A New Quenching Fluid Union Carbide Ltd., 8 Grafton Street, London, W.1. have introduced a new heat treatment fluid known as UCON Quenchant A which is said to have distinct advantages over conventional quenchants, emulsions, PVA solutions or water. This firesafe metal quenching medium is based on a unique principle and cooling rates can be varied by simple control of water dilutions and temperature. In some cases, it is said that this product can reduce steel costs by controlling fast quenching without softspotting, cracking or dimensional distortion. It is odourfree, nontoxic, nonsludging and contains a corrosion inhibitor. Gross contamination is the only cause for replacement with fresh fluid. It is applicable to both spray and immersion systems in precision induction hardening and furnace heat treating. http://www.deepdyve.com/assets/images/DeepDyve-Logo-lg.png Industrial Lubrication and Tribology Emerald Publishing

Abstract

Union Carbide Ltd., 8 Grafton Street, London, W.1. have introduced a new heat treatment fluid known as UCON Quenchant A which is said to have distinct advantages over conventional quenchants, emulsions, PVA solutions or water. This firesafe metal quenching medium is based on a unique principle and cooling rates can be varied by simple control of water dilutions and temperature. In some cases, it is said that this product can reduce steel costs by controlling fast quenching without softspotting, cracking or dimensional distortion. It is odourfree, nontoxic, nonsludging and contains a corrosion inhibitor. Gross contamination is the only cause for replacement with fresh fluid. It is applicable to both spray and immersion systems in precision induction hardening and furnace heat treating.
