INVOIL C
Obtains the highest vacuum pressure (10-7 torr) of the Apiezon oils without the need of a cold trap. Suitable for most diffusion pump applications, including in electron microscopes and in vacuum coaters. This is an economic and effective substitute for Santovac 5 fluid. It should be noted that the ultimate vacuum is dependent on a suitably high backing vacuum and the out-gasing of TEM film and column components. Consequently the ultimate vacuum attained with Invoil C (Apiezon C) is very close to the theoretically much superior Santovac 5.

This product is not hazardous and does not require an MSDS.
