Coolants are different due to their chemical composition, which affects their freezing and boiling points, thermal conductivity, and corrosion protection properties. Different vehicles or systems require specific coolant types to ensure optimal performance and longevity. Factors like environmental regulations, cost, and compatibility with materials used in the system also influence the selection of coolant.
Hazardous coolants in refrigeration units were replaced
Fluid dynamics, fluids make good coolants, its viscosity can fill any shape. I am sure there are more....
No - water freezes at zero degrees Celsius. The alcohol used in coolants freezes at a much lower temperature.
Coolant has these properties... it absorbs heat from the engine, which is why you put it in there it also has a lower freezing and higher boiling point than water it inhibits corrosion and lubricates the water pump
CFCs were once used as refrigerants, propellants in aerosol sprays, and as solvents in industries. They were valued for their stability and heat-absorbing properties. However, their use has largely been phased out due to their harmful effects on the ozone layer.
If you are asking about mixing different color or manufacturers coolants, it is not recommended.
The color of the coolant does not necessarily mean that they have the same composition. To be on the safe side, you need to verify the composition of both coolants to ensure they are compatible.
A high pressure will be able to push the coolants into the heater cores.
super coolants aren't well defined. generally a supercoolant is any substance that acts as a coolant however is more efficient than simply substances such as water and air wich are also coolants.
NO
Mixing two different antifreeze coolants can lead to chemical reactions that may produce sludge or precipitates, reducing the coolant's effectiveness. This can result in overheating, corrosion of engine components, and potential damage to the cooling system. Additionally, the mixed coolants may have incompatible properties, such as differing freeze and boil points, which can compromise engine performance. Regular maintenance and using the same type of coolant is essential to prevent these issues.
No, there are generally two types of coolant, both manufactured from different synthetic components, coolant/antifreeze can appear red in colour or green which is more common and if mixed can cause a chemical reaction that is considered corrosive, this 'mixing or combining' of coolants is not recommended by manufacturers.

Yes, it is. CFC's are coolants created by man.
16 psi
A lot
CFC's are used now also. they are used as coolants.
