No. The more pure the water, the better it stays frozen. That is why salt works to melt ice during the winter. Small amounts of chlorine are commonly added to prevent mold though. (yes, mold can form on ice unless it is kept at deep sub zero temperatures) There are liquids that have a higher freezing point, but most of them are expensive in large quantities.

Yes, you can add chemicals such as propylene glycol or ethylene glycol to the water in your ice rink to lower its freezing point and help it stay frozen better. However, it's important to ensure that these chemicals are safe for the environment and do not pose a health risk to users of the ice rink. Additionally, you may want to consult with a professional to determine the appropriate concentration of the chemical to achieve the desired effect.
