When planning to use glycol-water heat transfer fluids at low temperatures, there are a couple of important points to consider. The first is the freezing point of the mixture, and the second is the burst point.

What is the difference between propylene glycol and ethylene Glycol?

Refractometer or Hydrometer? Which to use for glycol concentration testing? The concentration of glycol in your system is what ensures that you have adequate freeze and burst protection. Glycol concentration can be measured in several different ways. This article describes two methods of testing that can easily be done at a job site, using inexpensive

1. Background Electronics has made its way into practically every aspect of modern life in the recent times. The introduction of the integrated circuit (IC), where several components such as diodes, transistors, resistors, and capacitors are placed on a single chip, revolutionized the electronic industry. The number of components packed in a single chip has

The increase in salt contamination in TEG can lead to an increase in corrosion of the metal piping, create hot

Dynalene is pleased to announce that it has been awarded a Phase I STTR grant from National Science Foundation (NSF). This grant will help Dynalene to collaborate with Lehigh University researchers to develop a cost effective, high temperature molten salt heat transfer fluid and thermal storage medium for concentrated solar power plants (CSP). With the

How do you choose a glycol?  “What is the difference between propylene glycol (PG) and ethylene glycol (EG)?” The main difference between the two glycols is that ethylene glycol (EG) is toxic while propylene glycol (PG) is non-toxic and can be purchased in a food grade version in addition to the technical/industrial grade. Another difference

Heat transfer fluids are important components of many industrial processes. We, here at Dynalene, have long been thinking about having a magazine dedicated to these fluids. There is no academic curriculum that teaches the science and engineering of heat transfer fluids. Therefore, we have decided to cover topics that are relevant to a heat transfer

Dynalene Inc. is pleased to announce the opening of its 3rd manufacturing and distribution facility in Salt Lake City, Utah. This new location will be equipped with multiple large scale blending tanks as well as more than 40,000 gallons of bulk fluid storage for propylene glycol, ethylene glycol and Dynalene HC.The plant will produce and

A quick and accurate way to measure the glycol concentration in a HVAC or mechanical system is through a hand-held refractometer. Here are a few do’s and don’ts for the proper use of this instrument. Be sure the instrument is clean and dry before use Use enough fluid to cover the entire measuring prism Point
