The difference between coolant and antifreeze is that coolant has both cooling function and antifreeze function, and antifreeze only antifreeze function. The full name of coolant is antifreeze coolant. The correct use of coolant can not only improve the efficiency of the engine and prolong the service life, but also protect the cooling system of the engine to ensure that the heat dissipation effect is always in the best condition.
Other differences between coolant and antifreeze:
1. Coolant will be used more in the south, and antifreeze will be used more in the north. Because the temperature in the north is very low in winter, it will sometimes freeze, resulting in unnecessary traffic accidents, so the north is more suitable for the use of antifreeze.
2. The coolant can be used all year round, because regardless of the temperature, the car needs to cool the engine system.
3. Antifreeze is mainly to prevent the cooling liquid from freezing when the temperature is low, causing the radiator to expand and freezing the engine cylinder.
The function of antifreeze coolant:
It has the characteristics of high boiling point. The boiling point of high-quality antifreeze coolant is 110 degrees Celsius, while the boiling point of water is 100 degrees Celsius, which ensures that it is not easy to boil when using antifreeze in high temperature in summer.
2. It has anti-scaling effect. When water is used as a coolant, the most difficult thing to deal with is the problem of scale. After the scale is attached to the metal surface of the water tank and the water jacket, it is very difficult to clean up, and it will also cause the heat dissipation effect to become worse and worse. High-quality coolant will be added with anti-scaling additives, and it is made of distilled water, which not only does not produce scale but also removes scale.
