摘要:
A new class of winterizing compositions are disclosed including a winterizing agents being a compound of general formula Z(R1)m, where Z is a polyol having between 5 and 30 carbon atoms, R1 is a carbyl group having between about 10 and about 40 carbon atoms, and where m is an integer having the value of 1 or 2, when m is 2, R1 can be the same or different and one or more carbon atoms of R1 can be replaced by B, N, O, Si, P, S, Ge and/or mixtures thereof and one or more of the hydrogen atoms in R1 can be replaced by F, Cl, Br, I, CONR22, COOR2, OR2, NR22, SR2, PR22, and/or mixtures thereof and where R2 can be a hydrogen atom, alkyl, aryl, alkylaryl or arylalkyl group having between 1-20 carbon atoms where one or more carbon or hydrogen atoms can be replaced as set forth for R1.
