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. Peak (automotive products) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PEAK_(automotive_products)

   Paul Menard's Menards/PEAK Antifreeze Chevy in 2008. PEAK is known for its sponsorship of motorsports teams and events, primarily in the IndyCar Series , NASCAR , and the NHRA . OWI sponsored the fall Sprint Cup Series event at Dover International Speedway from 1989 to 1992 as the PEAK Antifreeze 500 and from 1993 to 1994 as the SplitFire Spark ...

4. 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.

5. Waterless coolant - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Waterless_coolant

   Waterless coolant is a glycol-based liquid substance that does not contain water. Its boiling point of 191 °C (375 °F) is higher than that of water-based coolants and it resists the formation of corrosion . [ 1 ]

6. Ethylene glycol poisoning - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ethylene_glycol_poisoning

   The most common source of ethylene glycol is automotive antifreeze or radiator coolant, where concentrations are high. [9] Other sources of ethylene glycol include windshield deicing agents, brake fluid , motor oil , developing solutions for hobby photographers, wood stains , solvents, and paints. [ 9 ]

7. Antifreeze protein - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antifreeze_protein

   According to the structure and function study on the antifreeze protein from Pseudopleuronectes americanus, [55] the antifreeze mechanism of the type-I AFP molecule was shown to be due to the binding to an ice nucleation structure in a zipper-like fashion through hydrogen bonding of the hydroxyl groups of its four Thr residues to the oxygens ...
