What is Dry Ice?

Dry Ice is frozen carbon dioxide, a normal part of our earth’s atmosphere. This is the gas that we exhale during breathing and the gas that plants use in photosynthesis. It’s also the same gas commonly added to liquids to create carbonation. The gas is captured during industrial processes and are recycled to make Dry Ice. Dry Ice is particularly useful for freezing, and keeping things frozen because of its very cold temperature: -109.3 F or -78.5 C. It is widely used because it’s simple to freeze and easy to handle using insulated gloves. Dry Ice changes directly from a solid to a gas – sublimation – in normal atmospheric conditions without going through a wet liquid stage. Hence the name – “Dry Ice.”
