About Coolants and Antifreeze

Coolants and antifreeze protect engines from overheating or freezing and lubricate moving parts like the water pump, head gaskets, cylinder, and piston. They transfer heat and provide antifreeze protection to keep cars running optimally.

Engine coolant is used with liquid cooling systems, which consist of components like the water pump, radiator, fan, and thermostat. Coolant continuously cools the engine, preventing overheating or freezing.

It's primarily a mixture of ethylene glycol or propylene glycol mixed with water and additives. Coolants are also used in other heat transfer applications, such as HVAC chillers and solar water heaters.

Their purpose is to prevent physical stresses and catastrophic deformation of rigid enclosures at extreme temperatures. Compounds are added to reduce the freezing point and inhibit corrosion in cooling systems.

The term "engine coolant" is widely used in the automotive industry for its primary function of conductive heat transfer.

Transformer Oils

Transformer Oil Plants

Advanced manufacturing facilities for high-quality transformer oils with superior electrical properties

Transformer Oils Overview

Transformer oils are vital in electrical systems, derived from virgin paraffinic and naphthenic crude oils, enhanced by high-pressure hydrogenation and hydro-treatment. The process removes moisture and polar impurities, ensuring top-notch electrical properties.

These oils offer low pour points, outstanding oxidation stability, efficient cooling, and superior electrical attributes. Naphthenic mineral oil is a preferred choice for power transformer insulation due to its favorable characteristics, cost-effectiveness, and availability.

Transformer oil plays a crucial role in other electrical equipment like high-voltage switches and circuit breakers, stressing the importance of stability at high temperatures for uninterrupted operation.

Performance & Contamination

High viscosity supports electrical insulation, while low viscosity aids heat dissipation and fluid circulation. A significant concern is the susceptibility of transformer oils to contamination by water, dirt, and fibers, which can compromise electrical properties.

These contaminants can lead to arcing and dielectric breakdown. While these events don't immediately harm the machine, they significantly impact the oil, causing thermal breakdown. Low-temperature oxidation inhibitors and additives are used to mitigate degradation.
