Abstract (en)

The new composition incorporates monopropylene glycol which imparts antifreeze properties down to - 45 degrees C. The new composition claimed is made up of (wt.%): diammonium phosphate, 7-11%; urea, 10 - 15%; ammonium sulfate,10 - 15%; citric acid,1 - 5%; monopropylene glycol, 20 - 25% and water to 100%. The composition is prepared by adding all the diammonium phosphate to the water, stirring at 50 degrees C, then half of the urea followed by all the ammonium sulfate.The citric acid is next added then the remainder of the urea and finally the monopropylene glycol, a corrosion inhibitor and, optionally, a dye.
