First, are the white deposits solid, or liquid. If they are solid, it means you have not been servicing the cooling system and you are getting calcium buildup in there. Flush the system with a block flushing compound and refill with a 50/50 mix of quality antifreeze and distilled water If they are liquid, it is a sign of a blown head gasket or possibly an intake manifold gasket.

Possibly corrosion caused by fumes from the acid in your battery. Use baking soda and a stiff brush to clean your battery terminals and buy a pair of corrosion preventing felt washers that go on your battery. It is extremely important to make certain of two things. That the positive cable is removed from the battery before starting and do not get any baking soda in your battery or its lifespan will be highly reduced.

It sounds like mineral deposits. You may be putting in hard water. Flush out the radiator and use a 50/50 mixture of antifreeze and distilled water.

It could be oil, because oil is white when it's boiling
