Can antifreeze be used in red and blue together?

Hello, antifreeze and blue and red should not be used at the same time, if it is a temporary emergency use, it is better to use one color. I hope mine can help you, if you have any questions, please continue to consult, I wish you a happy life! [If you have a problem with the car, ask the car master.]

It's just that the color is different, and the antifreeze of the same color can also be used, and now many cars must add antifreeze

Hello, this one can't be universal, the internal substance is different.

Thank you for using, I hope mine can help you, if I can help you it would be great, if there is anything you don't understand or don't understand, you can continue to ask, I will definitely try my best to serve you!

Hello, I am an after-sales maintenance technician in a 4S shop.

The colors are different, they can be used universally, and there is no problem at all.

We use it all in 4S stores.

As long as the antifreeze is good color doesn't matter, it's just a matter of color.

Hello! The colors are just easy to distinguish. The itself is all the same, but with a different color of pigment. I hope it can help you, [If you have a problem with the car, ask the car master.] 4S shop professional technician, 10 minutes to solve. 】

No. There is no standard for color, only the composition in the antifreeze is different; There is a difference in standards, effects, roles, etc. Suggestion; Do not mix antifreeze of different colors, which will affect the heat dissipation effect of the engine, corrode the waterway, water pipes, etc.

Add antifreeze to see the same model, the same color, the same standard, the same manufacturer is the best product.

The requirements for engine antifreeze include: high boiling point, low freezing point, excellent ability to resist rust and corrosion, prevent the formation of deposits such as scale, prevent foam formation, etc.

Due to the different components and proportions of various types of antifreeze, the freezing point is also different, so it should be selected according to the local temperature conditions. Generally, the freezing point of antifreeze should be lower than the local minimum temperature of 10 15; When preventing boiling in summer, the antifreeze should reach at least 108 or more, so as to avoid the failure of the antifreeze when boiling.

There are many colors of antifreeze on the market today. For example, Great Wall Multi-Effect Antifreeze is fluorescent green, Caltex Premium Antifreeze is orange, Blue Star Antifreeze is blue, and Tongli Antifreeze is red. The antifreeze itself is a colorless and transparent liquid, and the reason why these antifreeze are made into bright colors is mainly to make it easier to distinguish and distinguish some dyes, and another function is to prevent accidental ingestion.

The color of antifreeze is not necessarily related to performance and quality. The Great Wall multi-effect antifreeze is prepared in a special fluorescent green color, mainly to facilitate leak detection.

There are many types of automotive antifreeze, such as calcium chloride (CaCl2) in inorganic matter, methanol (CH3OH) in organic matter, ethanol (C2H5OH, commonly known as alcohol), ethylene glycol (C2H4 (OH)2, commonly known as sweet alcohol), glycerol (C3H5 (OH)3, commonly known as glycerin), lubricating oil and common sugar, honey in our daily life, etc., can be used as the mother liquor of antifreeze. Unpolluted rainwater, snow water, etc., can become antifreeze in the general sense when the total hardness component concentration of the water quality is between 0 and 30 ppm.

At present, most car manufacturers around the world use ethanol, ethylene glycol or glycerol as the mother liquor of automobile antifreeze, especially ethylene glycol antifreeze. At present, the vast majority of imported and domestically produced automobiles in China use ethylene glycol antifreeze.

On the label of antifreeze, the main ingredients are generally marked, although the colors are different, but if the main ingredients are the same, the mixing will not have much effect. Sometimes, even though the color is the same, the main ingredients are different, so you must not mix them. However, it is not recommended to mix different brands of antifreeze with the same ingredient, and if it is for emergency purposes, it is not impossible to add a little.

Yes, but the green life span is two years, and the blue is 100,000 kilometers, and the antifreeze must be changed in advance after refueling [If you have a problem with the car, ask the car master. 4S shop professional technician, 10 minutes to solve. 】

1. Let users know that these antifreezes are not of the same brand, and different brands of antifreeze must not be mixed together, because the formula used by each manufacturer is different, so if there is a mixture, it is easy to cause engine blockage and we just said, under normal circumstances, the antifreeze of ethylene glycol is green, propylene glycol is red or orange, and glycerin is blue.

2. Different uses: If the antifreeze leaks, the user can easily identify the fault of the engine according to the color.

3. For our personal safety reasons, these antifreezes will be dyed into a variety of bright colors, and in the cognition of many users, brightly colored liquids are generally toxic, so the chemical composition also makes the color look very beautiful, reminding users that these liquids are toxic and cannot be drunk in the stomach.

Why do car antifreeze come in different colors and are there any differences? After reading it, I understand.

Red antifreeze used in Volkswagen models. The difference between red and blue antifreeze is: German cars and Japanese cars.

It makes no difference.

But don't mix it up.

Because mixing the two colors will cause oxidation.

I don't know the color, but you don't add it blindly

??Oh, do you believe it? The functions are different, one is to close the small jelly, and the other is to turn off the big jelly. Scold.

The difference is in performance, depending on yourself.

Common antifreeze comes in four colors: red, blue, green, and yellow. Different colors should not be mixed casually, nor can they be mixed with other maintenance fluids such as glass water.

Antifreeze has five main functions: cooling, antifreeze, corrosion, lubrication, and cleaning. These five functions are mainly anti-freezing and cooling, so that the engine can maintain the normal working temperature, and the temperature is too low to freeze.

To meet these working conditions, antifreeze components and additives are available in a variety of options and combinations. In the manufacturing process, manufacturers will add different colors of dyes to the antifreeze in order to distinguish different formulas. The purpose is not only to remind users that antifreeze is toxic and should not be consumed, but also to remind users not to mix them, as different colors represent different formulas.

When the engine enters the working high temperature state, the chemical stability of the mixed antifreeze changes, which may lead to the decline of cooling performance and antifreeze performance, and even the corrosion and crystallization of the cooling system, and some even produce toxic gases.

Therefore, if it is necessary to replace the antifreeze of a different color, the engine cooling and heating systems should be completely emptied and new antifreeze should be added. When changing antifreeze, the interval between most models is two years or 40,000 kilometers, and some models will be four years or 100,000 kilometers or more. Please refer to the manufacturer's recommended maintenance interval for the specific time.

1. The meaning is different.

Previously, red meant organic antifreeze, and blue was organic synthetic antifreeze; Nowadays, the big brands red for propylene glycol antifreeze and blue for glycerol antifreeze, the different colors of antifreeze are mainly used by manufacturers to indicate the main ingredients in their antifreeze.

2. The dyes are different.

Dyes include rhodamine B, methylene blue, etc., and the red antifreeze contains rhodamine B, which is dissolved in ethylene glycol and shows pink. Blue antifreeze contains methylene blue, which appears blue when dissolved in ethylene glycol.

3. The physical properties are different.

The freezing point of glycerol (glycerol) in blue antifreeze is -17, the boiling point is 290, and the freezing point after mixing with water can reach the lowest; The amount of glycerin in the water must be quite large to obtain a low freezing point antifreeze, which is not economical to use.

The propylene glycol boiling point in the red antifreeze is -75, and it will only become a "viscous glue state" at very low temperatures. Due to viscosity limitations, the general minimum usable temperature in industrial applications is -30.

The color of antifreeze is different, but their effects are the same, and antifreeze plus cooling does not have different effects due to different colors. Moreover, color is only a factor for manufacturers to distinguish, and does not represent a special effect.

The reason why antifreeze has so many different colors is that the key is the different formulas of various antifreeze manufacturers. From the perspective of ingredients, generally speaking, ethylene glycol is green, propylene glycol is red with orange, and glycerol is blue before color.

In addition, in order to prevent confusion with other liquids and prevent people from eating by mistake, many manufacturers will also add different color formulas to distinguish between simple cherry blossoms.
