Not entirely sure you're asking but if you mix dry ice with rubbing alcohol (91%) the temperature of the liquid will drop to around -120 degrees F. It will not freeze but instead for a liquid nitrogen like liquid.

∙ 10y agoBecause the freezing point of rubbing alcohol is below -110°F, which is the temperature of dry ice, it causes an endothermic reaction or "supercool" that causes an instant freeze as the alcohol sublime's, or burns off, the dry ice into a gas. In the case of making a triple point of water, the water in a triple point of water cell begins to freeze and create an ice bulb around the area of the reaction.
