About Alumiquench Pro:
An aqueous polymer quench, Alumiquench Pro is a water-based solution of an organic polymer, nitrite corrosion inhibitor, and biocide. The polymer is inversely soluble in water, allowing it to fall out as an insoluble precipitate above 74°C while dissolving back into the solution once the temperature decreases. During quenching, the polymer deposits on the surface of the hot metal and becomes one of the controlling factors in the heat transfer process from the part into the quenchant.
Key Benefits:
- Non-flammable
- Non-toxic
- Provides desirable cooling characteristics with minimal environmental impact
- Meets requirements of Aerospace Material Specification 3025, Type 1
- Can be used in open quench tanks & continuous furnaces
Success Story:
A customer in the business of heat treating aluminum parts within specific guidelines required by the aerospace industry needed a predictable quenchant. After a thorough system testing and reporting period, the DuBois team went on to develop Alumiquench Pro. The product was able to be added directly overtop of the customer's existing quenchant, and the customer has continued to have their performance expectations met in addition to our continued support for industry-required testing.
