3. Dry ice
Dry ice is one of the things that should never be put in the freezer because, like carbonated drinks, dry ice is basically solid CO2. That’s why when placed in a freezer with a temperature lower than -18oC, CO2 will expand an estimated 600 to 800 times compared to the solid form.
Once the mass of dry ice increases too high in a closed space such as the freezer compartment of a refrigerator, it will cause your refrigerator to explode at any time and can damage the equipment and utensils placed around the refrigerator, while also endangering the whole family.
Therefore, you need to be careful in storing dry ice, do not store it in the freezer compartment of the refrigerator but can choose to store it in insulated cooling devices. In addition, absolutely do not touch dry ice with bare hands because it can burn you, so use tongs or rubber gloves when holding ice.
