Antifreeze composition concentrate containing oxyalkylene compound and an organic phosphate surface modifier compound

Claim 1

An antifreeze composition concentrate comprising: (a) alcohol (b) at least one oxyalkylene compound of the formula: R'O(X).sub.n R" wherein R' and R" are hydrogen or an organic radical having 1 to 24 carbons, and where n is an integer between 1 and 100, wherein x is an alkyleneoxy radical or mixture of alkyleneoxy radicals made from the corresponding monomer or co-monomer and having from two to six carbon atoms, with the proviso that when said oxyalkylene compound has an EO content of less than about 50 wt. percent of X, the molecular weight of said compound must be less than about 900, (c) at least one surface modifier compound consisting of an organic derivative of phosphate, wherein the organic group is selected from the class consisting of the following radicals: alkyl, aryl, alkylaryl, arylalkyl, alkyleneoxy, polyalkyleneoxy, and present in an amount sufficient to provide improved corrosion resistance by surface modification of the metal surfaces to allow said oxyalkylene compound to form a film on the surface-modified metal surfaces, and (d) wherein said antifreeze composition concentrate has a cloud point between about 40° C. and about 125° C. when additionally containing water in an amount to make a diluted working antifreeze.
