  2. Antifreeze - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antifreeze

    An antifreeze mixture is used to achieve freezing-point depression for cold environments. Common antifreezes also increase the boiling point of the liquid, allowing higher coolant temperature. [1] However, all common antifreeze additives also have lower heat capacities than water, and do reduce water's ability to act as a coolant when added to ...

  3. Ethylene glycol - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ethylene_glycol

    Ethylene glycol (IUPAC name: ethane-1,2-diol) is an organic compound (a vicinal diol [7]) with the formula (CH 2 OH) 2.It is mainly used for two purposes: as a raw material in the manufacture of polyester fibers and for antifreeze formulations.

  4. Ethylene glycol poisoning - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ethylene_glycol_poisoning

    Antifreeze products for automotive use containing propylene glycol in place of ethylene glycol are available, and are generally considered safer to use, as it possesses an unpleasant taste in contrast to the perceived "sweet" taste of toxic ethylene glycol-based coolants, and produces only lactic acid in an animal's body, as their muscles do ...

  5. Coolant - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coolant

    A coolant is a substance, typically liquid, that is used to reduce or regulate the temperature of a system. An ideal coolant has high thermal capacity, low viscosity, is low-cost, non-toxic, chemically inert and neither causes nor promotes corrosion of the cooling system. Some applications also require the coolant to be an electrical insulator.

    Workers spreading salt from a salt truck for deicing the road Freezing point depression is responsible for keeping ice cream soft below 0°C. [1]Freezing-point depression is a drop in the maximum temperature at which a substance freezes, caused when a smaller amount of another, non-volatile substance is added.
