Flourinert

[Daovonnaex]

Does anyone know where I can aquire flourinert (for those who do not know, flourinert is a special non-conductive liquid that has been used by Cray, Inc. for supercomputer cooling)?

I think it's fluorinert. I guess your best bet would be to contact 3M

What do you have planned?

Before you bother, my friend has looked into this stuff before. It's apparently very expensive.

As long as it doesn't cost thousands and thousands of dollars, I'll be fine.

It might...........


..........update...........
Just went and found a distributor (not probably a real good one mind you since it was in france I believe), but it was somewhere in the range of 3500-4000 francs for 1kg which I think is the size of a small slam (pepsi). That roughly translates to $500 bucks for that amount. I think I will continue to consider mineral oil an alternative for imersion cooling.

Do you have a link?

Here is the link for a higher temp stable version of flourinert. (Doesn't vaporize until something like 150)

The lower heat of vaporization versions are cheaper. (Only about a 1/3 as much, but will turn to gas at just above room temp and that isn't something I would want to work with).

........edit.........
Here is the complete list from this company.
