Analysis Instrument for Antifreeze Testing

Published by Changsha Friend Experimental Analysis Instrument Co., Ltd.

Introduction

As vehicles evolve with hybrid and electric powertrains, coolant formulations face new thermal and chemical demands. The Analysis Instrument for Antifreeze Testing expands on basic freeze/boil tests by adding glycol durability, thermal cycling, and deposit analysis modules in a unified platform.

Enhanced Test Suite

  1. Freeze/Boil Cycles

    • Automates repeated freeze (–40 °C) and boil (135 °C) sequences to evaluate additive resilience.

  2. Glycol Degradation

    • Monitors breakdown products via onboard refractometry and spectrophotometry after thermal aging.

  3. Deposit & Sludge Formation

    • Circulates coolant through heated coils with metal coupons; measures deposit mass and composition.

  4. Thermal Conductivity

    • Assesses coolant’s heat-transfer efficiency using a transient hot-wire probe.

Instrument Highlights

  • Programmable Cycle Controller: Defines number of freeze/boil repetitions, dwell times, and ramp rates.

  • Inline Refractometer & UV Detector: Capture glycol concentration changes and organic by-products.

  • Flow-through Coil Module: Simulates engine channels with controlled flow rates and temperatures.

  • Data Integration: Correlates chemical, thermal, and deposit data in a unified dashboard.

Applications

  • Next-Generation Coolant R&D: Validate inhibitors for aluminum and mixed-metal engine blocks.

  • Electric Vehicle Thermal Management: Ensure stability in battery-coolant loops under variable loads.

  • Fleet Testing: Simulate extended service intervals and predict maintenance schedules.

  • Laboratory Method Development: Establish new standards for hybrid coolant performance.

Best Practices

  • Coolant Filtration: Filter samples through 5 µm media prior to deposit testing.

  • Probe Calibration: Standardize refractometer and conductivity probes with certified solutions bi-monthly.

  • Coupon Preparation: Polish and weigh metal coupons to ±0.1 mg before exposure.

  • Safety Measures: Use closed-loop fluid handling to prevent ethylene glycol vapor release.


We strive to create new management models and new products to meet the growing needs of customers.
