Fill the autoclaves with the development coolant (50 vol%, balance of demineralized water) to two
thirds of their volume. One third of air must remain above the liquid.
Keep the autoclaves closed during the whole autoclave aging period (do not open them). Docu-
ment the initial and the final pH value for the respective tests (168 h, 500 h, and 1 000 h).
In each autoclave, use a chain as per ASTM D1384. Exception: Omit the ASTM soft solder test
object in this test.
Add a pertinent table showing the metal test objects' weight changes to the test report.
Also specify the oxidation products (acetate, formate, and glycolate at a minimum) of each coolant
specimen after aging.

Use 40 vol% of coolant (balance of distilled water) for this test. Use EN AC-Al Si10Mg(Cu) as the
test object material. Set the pressure such that no boiling occurs during the specified test duration.
Evaluate the test objects gravimetrically and visually after the testing. Before and after the testing,
analyze the test liquid beyond the requirements specified in table 18. In particular, document possi-
ble corrosion and oxidation products and the content of inorganic corrosion inhibitors. Excessive
polymerization of coolant components under the test conditions specified in table 18 is not permis-

Fill a 250-ml coolant specimen (50 vol%, balance of distilled water) into a beaker (400 ml, borosili-
cate glass, high form) and place this into an oven, pre-heated to 200 °C. Leave the beaker in the
drying oven until all the liquid has completely evaporated.

NOTE: Evaporation refers to the heating of a chemical solution with the objective of separating
the solvent mixture, in this case, e.g., water-glycol, from the dissolved substance. It remains as a
solid residue as long as the substance is not volatile.
After the beaker has cooled down to room temperature in a suitable desiccator, weight it using a
calibrated analytical balance (the beaker must initially be weighed when empty, before being filled
with the coolant specimen). The difference between both weights is the residue content in g of the
250-ml specimen. Multiply the determined difference (residue) in g by the factor 4.
The calculated result is the total residue in g per 1 l of coolant (cold-country concentration).
After the total residue formation has been determined, fill the beaker containing the residue with
250 ml of distilled water and dissolve the residue again using a magnetic stirrer (magnet bar:
40 mm × Ø8 mm) for 1 h, at 60 °C, at 600 rpm.
Then analyze the liquid (complete analysis and physical properties such as pH value and reserve
alkalinity). Present the results in comparison with a fresh specimen.
Document the whole test and the test results with photos.
Stir 0,3 g of KAlF4 (powder) into 300 ml of the coolant under test (40 vol%, balance of distilled wa-
ter) using a magnetic stirrer (magnet bar: 40 mm × Ø8 mm) for 24 h, at a test solution temperature
of 70 °C, at 600 rpm. After that, transfer the complete test solution (including any sedimented com-
ponents) to a suitable laboratory glass flask, seal the flask, and age the solution in a drying oven
for 336 h (14 days) at 90 °C.
Determine the pH value and the reserve alkalinity after the following steps:
– After producing the 40-vol% solution
– After cooling down in the 24-h stirring test
– After cooling down in the 336-h aging test
Then analyze the liquid (complete analysis). Present the results in comparison with the fresh speci-
men not subjected to any testing.
