What is the normal temperature for antifreeze?
1 Answers
Antifreeze normally operates at a temperature of 90 degrees, and the temperature display may increase after prolonged use. Antifreeze, also known as antifreeze coolant, prevents the coolant from freezing during cold winter parking, which could otherwise crack the radiator and damage the engine cylinder block. Many car owners believe that antifreeze is only used in winter, but in fact, it should be used throughout the year. Antifreeze is a type of coolant containing special additives, primarily used in liquid-cooled engine cooling systems. It offers excellent performance in preventing freezing in winter, boiling in summer, and resisting scale and corrosion all year round. Currently, over 95% of antifreeze used domestically and internationally is ethylene glycol-based aqueous antifreeze. Compared to tap water, ethylene glycol's most notable feature is its antifreeze properties, whereas water cannot prevent freezing.
