The science behind PureTemp
PureTemp's patented and proprietary formulation works by absorbing and releasing otherwise-wasted surrounding ambient energy, providing the ability to hold specific temperature ranges for long periods of time. Tests performed by the USDA and analyses completed by Independent Life-Cycle and BEES have resulted in PureTemp being listed in the USDA BioPreferred directory as the only "green" choice in the Heat Transfer Fluid category.
PureTemp is a "phase change material," meaning it has the ability to change "phases" (for example, liquid to solid or solid to liquid) between set temperatures - anywhere between 40°F and 160°F. During the process of liquefying and solidifying within a set temperature range, phase change materials absorb, store and release large amounts of energy. These natural properties of latent heat energy help maintain a product's or structure's temperature and buffer it from temperature swings. PCMs recharge as ambient (outdoor) temperatures fluctuate, making them ideal for a multitude of everyday applications.
