Has anybody experimented with brine as a solution in their chillers?
I was talking to a chemical lecturing friend about possible solutions and he suggested it. It can get as low as -21C and should still have excellent specific heat capacity. If needed I guess you could add a small amount of ethanol/methanol to drop the temp a bit further without lossing its favourable properties.
Any thoughts from people better informed than myself?
