About Antifreeze Agents
Antifreeze agents are the additives when added to a water-based fluid reduces the freezing point of the mixture. These agents are used in mechanical equipment in environments below the freezing point to prevent the freezing of heat transfer fluids. It also used in cementing jobs to allow the operation below the freezing point. The factors such as High Demand for Automotive Applications and the Rise in the Use of Non-conventional Applications such as Heat Transfer Agents and Coolants in Geothermal Pumps and Conditioning Systems are the key drivers for the global Antifreeze Agents Market. However, the High Cost of Raw Materials and Increasing Focus Toward Electric Vehicles may hamper the market growth.
