Global Light Vehicle Antifreeze Market Definition

Antifreeze is a liquid substance that circulates through the internal combustion engine to draw off excessive heat. It is also known as a coolant and is used in automobiles to alter the freezing point of coolant in cold regions and the boiling point in hot regions. The two chemicals that are widely used for this are propylene glycol and ethylene. Both of them have a freezing point lower than water and boiling points higher than water. This enables the chemicals to freely despite cold winter conditions. The main purpose of using antifreeze is to overcome the shortcomings of water as a heat transfer fluid.

Global Light Vehicle Antifreeze Market Overview

Growing global vehicle production which in turn will fuel the demand for light vehicle antifreeze is predicted to leverage the market in the coming years. Also, rising consumer spending and changing weather conditions in some of the regions are likely to drive the market over the forecasted period. Increasing research and development activities is expected to have a positive impact on the market.
