SunMaxx Solar launches bio-based Glycol XT for superior heat transfer in solar projects

March 27, 2012 |

In New York, SunMaxx Solar, a vertically integrated manufacturer of solar thermal systems and components, announced the launch of a custom Glycol XT, a 50/50 mixture of 1,3-Propanediol and water. With a long list of advantages, including a lower price, this heat transfer fluid has a higher thermal conductivity than standard propylene glycol, while maintaining the original’s very low toxicity.

The company said that SunMaxx Glycol XT also has a greater temperature range than standard propylene glycol. It can go just as low without freezing to -17°F, and can withstand temperatures as high as 349°F without breaking down.  Glycol XT is made from sustainable, bio-based raw materials.
