At 3M, we apply science in collaborative ways to improve lives daily.
More than a century ago, 3M started as a small-scale mining venture in Northern Minnesota, then named Minnesota Mining and Manufacturing Company. Now a global powerhouse, our products improve the daily lives of people around the world. Today, with corporate operations in 70 countries and sales in 200, we are committed to creating the technology and products that advance every company, enhance every home and improve every life.
Our 3M™ Novec™ Engineered Fluids are developed not only to deliver excellent performance in many heat transfer applications, but to do so in a way that doesn’t compromise worker safety or environmental sustainability. Novec Engineered Fluids are dielectric and non-flammable, offer a variety of operating temperature ranges and are low-maintenance, low-mess alternatives to traditional cooling fluids such as water, water/glycol or oils used for heat transfer. Their high dielectric strength allows direct contact with electronics and their excellent material compatibility making them ideal for your machinery. Novec fluids work in many applications including cold plate cooling for semiconductors, freeze-drying of pharmaceuticals, immersion cooling of data centres and spray cooling for avionics.
