What is the biggest difference between water and antifreeze?
1 Answers
The biggest difference between water and antifreeze lies in the fact that antifreeze has the characteristics of freeze resistance and high-temperature resistance, while water does not. Additionally, antifreeze has a higher boiling point, making it suitable for use in the high-temperature working environment of an engine. Below is a related introduction to the functions of antifreeze: 1. Antifreeze serves multiple purposes including freeze resistance, cooling, corrosion prevention, and scale prevention: It ensures that the car does not freeze in cold climates and can still operate normally; it also helps cool down the high-temperature operating engine. 2. Cooling the engine: Without antifreeze, the engine temperature would continue to rise without effective cooling, and continued driving under such conditions could damage the engine.
