FROM STAYING IN IT FOR A LONG TIME!

(See my notes on antifreeze from dried fruits.)

There are already rudiments of classification on this topic:

So far, the largest amount of enzymatically formed propylene glycol during drying has been observed in sliced mango fruit slices. The smallest is in pineapple slices. In second place after mango is raisins. On the third – cherries. (Of course, I did not conduct any quantitative and qualitative chemical analysis, for lack of the slightest opportunity. But by the degree of freezing of fruits swollen from boiling water or their Non-freezing, I could judge the concentration of antifreeze in them.)

Propylene glycol not only LOWERS the freezing point of water (more precisely, the temperature of its transformation into solid crystalline ice), but also INCREASES its boiling point, and hence the EVAPORATION temperature.

Protective rection of living cells for drying! They “strive” to slow down and reduce drying by synthesizing propylene glycol.

But, I return to the topic of the note.

So, as the concentration of antifreeze increases, the water mixture with it becomes less susceptible to freezing.

But the water (ice) in the freezer EVAPORATES too. How does wet laundry dry, hung out in the cold in the yard or on the balcony. This means that as the water evaporates from its frozen mixture with antifreeze, its concentration will increase all the time and the moment will come when the temperature in the freezer, minus fifteen degrees Celsius, will no longer be able to freeze water with a high proportion of antifreeze and IT will MELT!!!

Such, here, are “miracles” in which there is nothing miraculous!

Another confirmation of the law of dialectics about the transition of opposites into each other.

P.S. The first results of the prediction have already begun to appear, although not even 24 hours have passed since writing the note. (I wrote it first and only then took the lid off the jar of water from brewing dried fruits in it)!

Yesterday, there was only rather soft ice in the jar, which gave way under my fingers.

The first liquid has already appeared today! The concentration of antifreeze has increased slightly!
