Why Did My DMSO Freeze After I Withdrew Drops?

Posted by Awordsley (Yosemite, ) on 11/23/2018

Can anyone advise me on what I did wrong with my new bottle of DMSO solution. I withdrew 3 drops of DMSO, using the same dropper for my turpentine (washed it well in between solutions) and I now have a frozen solid bottle of DMSO. The climate here is in the 50s at night and 70s in the day, so it cannot actually be frozen. Can anyone advise please?

I've read several sources online which state DMSO will solidify/crystallize if it is highly pure and when the temperature is less than 19 degrees Centigrade. Placing the sealed container in some hot water might thaw it out.
