eni Antifreeze Spezial G BX

PRODUCT DATA SHEET

eni Antifreeze Spezial G BX - mixed with the appropriate amount of water - is used as a
cooling and heat transferring fluid in combustion engines. The heat of the internal combustion
is transferred via the fluid to the radiator where the mixture is cooled by means of airflow. eni
Antifreeze Spezial G BX is an ethylene glycol based fluid that provides maintenance-free
protection against freezing and boiling but also against corrosion. eni Antifreeze Spezial G
BX has been developed to meet specific demands of particular OEMs by combining organic and
silicate technology.

BENEFITS

eni Antifreeze Spezial G BX offers many benefits to the engine designer as well as to the
user:

* Long life protection Synergistic effect by a combination of organic


inhibitors.
* Uniform & homogenous protective Engineered inhibitor package
layer
* No gel formation or drop-out performant silicate stabiliser
* Environmentally friendly free of borate, nitrite, amines and phosphates
* Aluminium protection high-performance additives

APPLICATION

eni Antifreeze Spezial G BX provides efficient frost and corrosion protection. To ensure good
corrosion protection it is recommended to use at least 33 vol. % of eni Antifreeze Spezial G
BX in the coolant solution. This provides frost protection to -22°C. Typical mixtures in
Northern Europe are 50/50, offering frost protection down to -40°C. Mixtures with more than
70 vol. % eni Antifreeze Spezial G BX in water are not recommended. The maximum frost
protection (about -69 ° C) is obtained at 68 vol%. eni Antifreeze Spezial G BX may be used
with confidence in engines manufactured from cast iron, aluminium or combinations of the two
metals, and in cooling systems made of aluminium or copper alloys. eni Antifreeze Spezial G
BX is particularly recommended for hi-tech engines, where high temperature aluminium
protection is important.

COMPATIBILITY AND MIXABILITY

eni Antifreeze Spezial G BX is compatible with most other coolants based on ethylene
glycol. Exclusive use is however recommended for optimum corrosion protection and inhibitor
stability. This coolant is compatible with European hard tap waters. It satisfies the most
stringent requirements for hard water stability.

APPROVAL

eni Antifreeze Spezial G BX meets the requirements of VW TL774G¹ (G12++), and has
successfully passed all stringent VW lab tests.
