Therminol

Therminol is a synthetic heat transfer fluid[1] produced by Eastman Chemical Company.

In 1997, the chemical businesses of Monsanto were spun off to form a new company called Solutia Inc.

FR series Therminol heat transfer fluids contained PCBs, which imparted fire resistance.

No form of Therminol heat transfer fluids have contained PCBs since that time.
