Antifreeze |
|
Generally, it is an ethylene glycol or propylene glycol based homogeneous liquid that reduces the freezing point of the coolant, raising the boiling point and preventing rust when added to the cooling systems of the engines. The antifreeze must be a homogeneous liquid, it must not contain visible impurities and should be markedly colored with a suitable dye. With its additives, it is recommended to use not only in winter but also in four seasons, as it protects metal and its alloys against rust and wear and prevents freezing in winter as well as preventing heat in summer. An ideal antifreeze should prevent freezing and cause the water to boil.

USAGE FEATURES AND BENEFITS |
It contributes to cooling by providing better heat transfer and is suitable for four seasons use in cooling systems. By increasing the efficiency of the cooling system, it keeps the temperature of the engine low and prolongs the life of the engine. It ensures efficient circulation pump operation. It works compatible with all kinds of metal and metal alloys used in cooling systems and prevents the formation of corrosive substances. It reduces the freezing point of the cooling water and prevents the formation of cracks and other damages caused by expansion in cold climates. Thanks to its protection feature, it reduces the need for repairs in the thermostat, radiator and water pump. So it saves money. |
