I've recently acquired a source of 30% acetic acid aqueous solution. My question is could I get a concentration in excess of 75% using fractional
freezing.
I've found a source that allows me to use ethyl acetate as an entrainer to remove the water entirely. Nevertheless, as ethyl acetate can be harder
to acquire it mayb be best to use as many fractional freezings as possible and practical

Search for a binary eutetic phase diagram for acetic acid and water. You won't be able to increase concentration past the eutectic by fractional
freezing alone. Perhaps a distillation once you get to this point would remedy this
