    consistency and a sweet taste. It has low vapour pressure and it is combustible. Ethylene glycol may also be called mono ethyl glycol or ethane 1,2-diol. Ethylene glycol is produced commercially on a large scale and commonly used as a de-icer and antifreeze due to its solvent properties. It is used in industrial compound due to its high boiling point and low freezing point. Ethylene glycol is used in many consumer products, including hydraulic brake fluid, paints, inks and pens. It is also used in

    Predator UAV: The Predator UAV is a average height, extended range aircraft that functions much like any other tiny plane. A Rotax 914, four-cylinder, four-stroke, 101-horsepower engine, the identical engine sort normally worn on snowmobiles, rotates the key drive shaft. The drive shaft turns around the Predator's two-blade, erratic pitch pusher propeller. The rear-mounted propeller make available both drive as well as lift. The distant pilot can change the pitch of the blade to add to otherwise

    Ethylene glycol (antifreeze), chemical formula C2H6O2, is made up of 2 carbon ions (C), 6 hydrogen ions (H), and 2 oxygen ions (O). This ionic compound is used as an engine cooling and de-icing fluid, and when it's mixed with water, ethylene glycol has a freezing point of -45 degrees Celsius, making it perfect for icy winter conditions. When dissolved in water, ethylene glycol disrupts hydrogen bonding, therefore preventing ice from forming. As water freezes, it gets bigger and crystallizes, however
