More info:

Inorganic acid technology (IAT) antifreeze, also known as fully formulated coolant, is a traditional type of coolant that contains ethylene glycol, phosphates, and silicates. It typically appears green or blue in color and manufacturers commonly used it in older vehicles, particularly those built before the late 1990s. This antifreeze actively protects cast iron, brass, copper, and aluminum components in older vehicles and includes supplemental coolant additives (SCA) that prevent engine liner corrosion.

IAT antifreeze can last for up to 200,000–250,000 miles or two to three years, but the SCA additives are the first to wear out. As a result, owners of older vehicles that use IAT antifreeze should flush and refill their systems every two years or up to 72,000 km. By comparison, IAT antifreeze delivers lower efficiency than newer coolant technologies and does not suit modern vehicles.
