Composition having enhanced corrosion resistance and pH buffering property for antifreeze liquid or coolant
A composition for the antifireeze liquid or the coolant includes a cyclo hexane dicarboxylic acid, an azole- or thiazole-based inhibitor, and a metal from an element of group 2, group 5, group 6, or group 7. The composition of the present invention has increased corrosion resistance at a lower density by not containing organic additives, and has a better pH buffering property due to enhanced thermal oxidation stability at a high temperature. Even after a long-term operation for over 200000 km, the composition of the present invention maintains a metal corrosion resistance capability, the appearance of a water pump impeller and the inside of a radiator tube including aluminum remains decent, and the composition has a superior corrosion resistance effect with respect to internal metal parts even after an operational test, thereby allowing use of the composition for the antifreeze liquid or the coolant having a long life.
