Chemours and DataVolt to Co-Develop Liquid Cooling for AI Data Centers

The Chemours Company has entered a strategic agreement with DataVolt to jointly develop and demonstrate advanced liquid cooling solutions for data centers. The collaboration targets increased energy efficiency and sustainability through two-phase direct-to-chip, two-phase immersion cooling, and other systems designed to meet growing demands from AI and next-generation chips.

The partnership includes the use of Chemours’ Opteon™ dielectric fluids, which have ultra-low global warming potential. These fluids will be applied in new cooling technologies aimed at improving infrastructure readiness, reducing environmental impact, and supporting higher computing densities.

Chemours stated that the agreement is part of its broader Liquid Cooling portfolio strategy to support the evolving needs of AI and advanced digital infrastructure. The company claims its two-phase immersion cooling fluids can deliver up to 90% reduction in cooling energy use and up to 40% lower total cost of ownership, while minimizing water usage and enabling greater computing density.

“Our collaboration with DataVolt represents another significant step in our liquid cooling roadmap,” said Denise Dignam, Chemours President and CEO. “Combining our thermal management expertise with DataVolt’s knowledge designing and operating sustainable data centers, we can help accelerate the adoption of liquid cooling and other innovative technologies.”

Rajit Nanda, CEO of DataVolt, added: “This collaboration underscores our commitment to be at the forefront of innovation as we serve the world’s insatiable need for eco-friendly, high-performance and mission critical AI factories.”
