Depending on the kind of antifreeze it is, it will freeze at different temperatures. If it is strait antifreeze it will not freeze until very cold temperatures, but if it is 50/50 or if you add water to it, it will have a higher freezing point.

Why doesn't antifreeze freeze?

Actually, antifreeze will freeze. It just freezes at a much lower temperature than ordinary water. But it can freeze, and the chemical structure of antifreeze is such that the molecules will not change state (liquid to solid -- freeze) except at the very lowest temperatures. A lot of thermal energy must be removed from antifreeze to cause the molecules to "hook up" and the stuff to change state into a solid. It's based on the nature of the chemical structure of antifreeze.
