We have a problem with ethanolamines freezing in cold weather. Is there any solution available?
Answer:
Yes. If water can be tolerated in your process, low freezing grades of ethanolamines which contain 15 percent water can be supplied. The added water lowers the freezing point of the amines much more than might be expected. Some isopropanolamines are also available in low freezing grades.

Should I be concerned about the freezing point of solvents?
Answer:
Most solvents have a low enough freezing point that storage is not a problem. However, there are those that are exceptions such as tert-Butanol with a freezing point of 79°F and Cyclohexane with a freezing point of 43°F. -
We have freezing problems with Caustic Soda (Sodium Hydroxide) 50 percent liquid. Are there other alternatives?
Answer:
Caustic Soda liquid 50% has a freezing point of approximately 52-54°F, mixtures of Caustic Potash 45% (Potassium Hydroxide) and Caustic Soda 50% (Sodium Hydroxide) liquid can be used to lower the freezing point without a large reduction in active alkalinity.45 % Caustic Potash liquid, wt % 50 % Caustic Soda liquid, wt % Freezing point °F Reduction in Active Alkalinity % 0 100 52-54 0 5 95 30 1.8 10 90 15 3.6 20 80 10 7.2 25 75 5 9.0
