2. Internal combustion engine cooling - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internal_combustion_engine...

   Most liquid-cooled engines use a mixture of water and chemicals such as antifreeze, rust inhibitors, and other additives. These antifreeze mixtures, also known as "engine coolant," are typically glycol-based fluids that contain a mixture of ethylene glycol, additives, and water. Common types of coolants include Inorganic Acid Technology (IAT ...

   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. 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 ...

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. 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.

7. Cryoprotectant - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cryoprotectant

   A cryoprotectant is a substance used to protect biological tissue from freezing damage (i.e. that due to ice formation). Arctic and Antarctic insects, fish and amphibians create cryoprotectants (antifreeze compounds and antifreeze proteins) in their bodies to minimize freezing damage during cold winter periods.
