INDUSTRIES THAT USE DMSO
In Canada, DMSO is approved for use as a solvent in a variety of industries including:
PHARMACEUTICAL
COSMETIC
ELECTRONIC MANUFACTURING
While DMSO has many potential uses, it is important to handle it with care and to follow the safety guidelines and regulations set by the Canadian government and other regulatory bodies. DMSO can cause skin irritation and other side effects in some individuals, and it should only be used under the guidance of a trained professional.
DMSO HAS A RANGE OF POTENTIAL USES, INCLUDING:
ANTI-INFLAMMATORY

DMSO, or dimethyl sulfoxide, is a liquid solvent that can freeze under certain conditions.
Here's what you need to know about DMSO freezing:
Freezing Point
The freezing point of pure DMSO is approximately 18.5 degrees Celsius (65.3 degrees Fahrenheit). This means that DMSO will start to solidify and form crystals at temperatures below this point.
Crystallization
When DMSO does freeze, it forms crystals that can resemble ice. The crystallization process can be initiated by cooling the DMSO below its freezing point or by introducing a seed crystal into the liquid.
Thawing
To thaw frozen DMSO, simply raise the temperature above its freezing point. DMSO will return to its liquid state once it reaches temperatures above 18.5 degrees Celsius (65.3 degrees Fahrenheit).
Freezing of DMSO is typical and does not effect the quality.
