Definitions
Life Expectancy–The time period for which the engine coolant is suitable for use in internal-combustionengine cooling systems without adversely affecting coolant flow and heat transfer.
3.2Engine Coolant Concentrate–A mixture of ethylene glycol and additives, such as corrosion inhibitors and afoam suppressor, which is used to prepare an engine coolant for use in internal-combustion engine coolingsystems.
3.3Engine Coolant–A heat transfer solution used in an engine cooling system to transfer heat from the engine tothe radiator, which provides adequate protection against freezing, boiling, and corrosion. The solution iscomprised of 40 to 70% coolant concentrate and water.
