Definition
To freeze or bond firmly together, or to cause to stick due to freezing.
Etymology
From ad- (to) + freeze (Old English frēosan, related to frost). The prefix intensifies the verb to mean 'freeze onto.'
Kelly Says
Adfreeze is crucial in permafrost regions where soil becomes literally bonded to building foundations—engineers have to account for this powerful adhesion in Arctic construction.
