Vacuum Grease
The Apiezon family of greases provides solutions for a wide spectrum of temperatures and applications. The range includes vacuum grease specially formulated for use in cryogenic applications. All Apiezon products are silicone-free and highly creep resistant, reducing the chance of grease travelling away from the area of application and contaminating adjacent surfaces.
Apiezon greases have the additional benefit of a powerful gettering action which gives rise to strong absorption properties. These greases are easy to apply and remove, have a ten year shelf life and boast a long and successful track record including use by NASA, NATO, US & UK Military.
Vacuum Wax and compounds
The Apiezon range consists of three different waxes and includes the popular Wax W, better known to many as ‘Black Wax’. The waxes can be used as vacuum sealant, mounting wax or resistance to etch fluid. Available alongside these waxes is Apiezon Q Compound, a multipurpose sealant used in a number of industries.
All products in the Apiezon range of waxes and compounds offer high purity combined with powerful ‘gettering’ and clean meltdown properties. The products are easy to use and remove, resistant to etch fluid and perform as excellent waterproof mediums with first-rate vapour pressure characteristics.
Vacuum Oil
M&I Materials is the sole manufacturer of Apiezon vacuum oils which are known around the globe for their superior quality and stability. Their range includes sealing oils Apiezon J and Apiezon K, which are used in situations where moderate viscosity and low vapour pressure are required.
Apiezon oils offer high stability in combination with low vapour pressure. These specialist oils do not give rise to insulating films and they leave no corrosive deposits or vapours.
