What is the highest boiling point of antifreeze?
1 Answers
The boiling point of antifreeze should be at least 108°C or higher, while high-quality antifreeze can achieve a freezing protection effect of around -60°C. This means that the lower the freezing point and the higher the boiling point, the greater the temperature difference, indicating relatively better quality of the antifreeze. Precautions for using antifreeze: 1. Try to use the same brand of antifreeze: Different brands of antifreeze use different metal corrosion inhibitors, so antifreeze of different brands should not be mixed. 2. Avoid diluting with water: Traditional inorganic antifreeze should not be diluted with water, as it can cause precipitation, severely affecting the normal function of the antifreeze. Organic antifreeze can be diluted with water, but not too much. 3. For vehicles using antifreeze, never directly add tap water: Distilled or deionized water should be added. If neither is available, cooled boiled water is better than tap water. If antifreeze is lost due to leakage, the same brand of antifreeze should be replenished. Antifreeze should be used all year round; using tap water in summer is not scientific and is counterproductive. 4. Flocculent precipitation in antifreeze: Some antifreeze may develop a small amount of flocculent precipitation after being stored for a year. This phenomenon is mostly caused by the precipitation of additives and does not require disposal. If a large amount of granular precipitation appears, it indicates that the antifreeze has deteriorated and should no longer be used.
