Acetic acid iitakwe maanzi (glacial acetic acid) nchintu chitakwe mubala, chilaa maanzi aajisi busena bwakutontola bwa 16.6°C (62°F). Niyakayuma, ilapanga mabwe aatakwe mubala. Nikuba kuti yabikkwa muchiinga chakuti asidi itakwe nguzu nkaambo ilakonzya kwaandaanya mumaanzi, asidi ya asidi ilakonzya kubola, mpawo busi bwayo bulakonzya kunyonganya meso ampemo.

Mbuli asidi uutegwa carboxylic acid, asidi ya glacial acetic nchintu chiyandikana loko. Alimwi lilabelesyegwa mukupanga cellulose acetate yakupanga filimu yakufwotola, polyvinyl acetate yakupanga zintu zyakunamatizya zisamu, antoomwe azintu zyiingi zyakupanga azyakusama.

Asidi ya glacial acetic yakaba sikusambala kunze aacisi kwamyaka myiingi. Data ilajanika mpawo kuli kugwisigwa kwamiulo yazyintu zyiingi. Dina aawa kuti ujane zikozyanyo zyakuula.
