Wet scanning fluid is usually some sort of purified mineral oil.

Subject: Re: [OM] eliminating Newton rings from film scans
The Newton rings come from the small airspace between the film and the
glass. Another option to defeat them is to fill the airspace with
liquid. The Epson V750 has a liquid mounting kit to go along with its
specially treated scanner glass. It uses a special (flammable) liquid
between film and glass. I don't know why it's flammable. Maybe a
volatile liquid is used so that it evaporates quickly and cleanly after
the scan is complete.
Here's a good source of special film holders (including anti-newton ring
glass) for various scanners. <http://www.betterscanning.com/>
