2. Antifreeze - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antifreeze

   Proper engine coolant and a pressurized coolant system obviate these shortcomings of water. With proper antifreeze, a wide temperature range can be tolerated by the engine coolant, such as −34 °F (−37 °C) to +265 °F (129 °C) for 50% (by volume) propylene glycol diluted with distilled water and a 15 psi pressurized coolant system.

3. Freeze spray - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Freeze_spray

   Spray containing propane, butane, and ethanol, for dental applications. Freeze spray (cold spray or vapocoolant) is a type of aerosol spray product containing a liquified gas used for rapidly cooling surfaces, in medical and industrial applications.

4. 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.

5. Antifreeze protein - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antifreeze_protein

   Around 50% of the residues are glycine (Gly), with repeats of Gly-Gly- X or Gly-X-X, where X is any amino acid. Each 3-amino-acid repeat forms one turn of a polyproline type II helix. The helices then fold together, to form a bundle that is two helices thick, with an ice-binding face dominated by small hydrophobic residues like alanine, rather ...

6. Ammonia - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ammonia

   Ammonia coolant is also used in the radiators aboard the International Space Station in loops that are used to regulate the internal temperature and enable temperature-dependent experiments. [76] [77] The ammonia is under sufficient pressure to remain liquid throughout the process. Single-phase ammonia cooling systems also serve the power ...

7. Propylene carbonate - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Propylene_carbonate

   Propylene carbonate is used as a polar, aprotic solvent. [7] It has a high molecular dipole moment (4.9 D), considerably higher than those of acetone (2.91 D) and ethyl acetate (1.78 D). [1]
