Haydale to deploy graphene cooling fluid additive in data centers

UK firm Haydale has partnered with DC Cooling Solutions and Levidian Nanosystems to bring its graphene-based SETTF additive to market, boosting the thermal conductivity of glycol cooling fluids by 28%. First installations are planned across 200MW of compute within the next 12 months.

• SETTF is added at about 0.05% of fluid volume and raises thermal conductivity by 28%
• First deployments target 200MW of compute capacity within 12 months
• The product will be sold via a new joint company with DC Cooling and Levidian
• Graphene is dispersed so the fluid does not thicken and keeps corrosion protection
