    freezer test

    Sus is supposed to turn cloudy when freezer tested I read, but should it turn completely solid? Doesn't seem like something oil based would freeze that much... I'm pretty skeptical about my vials of sus 300. They're unmarked, brown and skinny. Each is 10ml and has a red cap and I was told is European. Any opinions would be useful. Thanks

    How long was it in the freezer? 10 minutes will make it very thick.

    An oil/alcohol will not freeze so Sus will not freeze as the molecule infrastructure contains no water.It will however change viscosity at extreme temps like when you place it in the freezer it becomes more viscous (thicker)It will then go cloudy

    10 minutes did nothing to it. After a few (about 5 or 6) hours, it was cloudy and seemed to be solid. Just worrying b/c it was unlabeled. Thanks bros.
