What is UCON™ Quenchant E?
A nonflammable polymeric quenchant, it is an aqueous solutions of a liquid organic polymer and a corrosion inhibitor, the organic polymer is soluble in water and produces a homogenous solution.
Uses
- Heat treatment of carbon and alloy steels.
- Furnace operations.
- Wrought, case and forged aluminum alloys
- Hardening of lean-hardenability steels
- Induction hardening of lean alloy steels
- Deep case pattern applications
- Single-bath concentrations of polymer that operate over the range of thin and heavy wrought, cast, and/or forged aluminum alloys for maximum physicals with low distortion
- Non-ferrous metals such as titanium alloys, beryllium-copper, and bronzes
- Large alloy parts from tilt-top, car-bottom and pit furnaces
- Forged parts
- Sensitive alloys and shapes heated by induction
- Parts processed from continuous and batch-furnace operations employing gas-fired, neutral, and carburizing-carbonitriding atmospheres requiring oil quenching rates
- Large alloy parts from tilt-top furnances
- Hardening forged parts quenched directly where higher bath temperatures are required
- Furnaces requiring carburizing atmospheres
- Atmosphere furnaces containing chute quenching systems
- Parts processed from continuous and batch-furnace operations employing gas-fired, neutral, and carburizing-carbonitriding atmospheres.
Benefits
- FM Approved
- Low deterioration and/or oxidation rate
- Eliminate smoke, soot and residues common to oil quenchants
- Water soluble and resistant to bacterial growth.
