The c
12、oolant concentrate form, quality and chemical composition shall not be adversely affected, changed or impacted by storage up to 5 years under environmental conditions of normal distribution and storage. In-vehicle, the coolant mixed with water shall be stable so as not to change in form, quality or

14、test coolant and the hard water solution. Samples are to have coolant concentrations of 100% (samples 1 and 2), 75% (samples 3 and 4) and 50% (samples 5 and 6).

16、 cool to room temperature. Check for precipitates, deposits, gelation and phase separation. “Fish eyes” on the top (from defoamer) are acceptable. If anything other than “fish eyes” is present, such as gel or material in solution or precipitate, terminate test and write as failure. Analyze coolant a
17、nd material to determine effect. Cold Storage Stability - Samples 2, 4 and 6 are cold storage tested at -40C for 14 days. Remove a 20 ml sample on days 2, 4, 7, 10 and 14. Allow to go to room temperature. Check for precipitates, deposits, gelation and phase separation. “Fish eyes” on the top (from d
18、efoamer) are acceptable. If anything other than “fish eyes” is present, such as gel or material in solution or precipitate, terminate test and consider as a failure. Analyze coolant and material to determine effect. 3.4.17.2 Flux Solution Prepare flux solution by adding 0.50 wt% post-braze Nocolok f
