WHAT DOES COLD PACK MEAN IN ENGLISH?

Ice pack

An ice pack or gel pack is a plastic sac of ice, or of refrigerant gel or liquid. Both the ice pack and the non-toxic gel can absorb a considerable amount of heat due to the high enthalpy of fusion of water. These packs are commonly used to keep food cool in coolers for consumption later in the day; or as a cold compress to alleviate the pain of minor injuries; or in insulated shipping containers to keep products cool during transport. Ice packs are used in coolers to keep perishable foods below the 41–165 °F danger zone when outside a refrigerator or freezer. The amount of ice needed to cool a given mass of food varies greatly, depending on: the initial temperature of the food; the temperature, solidity, and mass of the ice used; the insulating value of the container both are put into; the ambient temperature around the container; and whether the container is exposed to direct sunlight or kept in the shade. Water has an unusually high enthalpy of fusion and a convenient melting temperature. Additives to improve the properties of water are often used.
