Windshield washer fluid typically contains antifreeze agents like methanol or ethanol, which help prevent the fluid from freezing in cold temperatures. Additionally, surfactants are included to help dissolve and remove dirt, grime, and bugs from the windshield. This combination ensures that the fluid remains effective in various weather conditions while maintaining visibility.
Windshield washer fluid has a freezing point of -40

The blue liquid in your windshield washer is a mixture rather than a pure substance. It typically contains water, detergents, antifreeze agents like ethylene glycol, and dye for coloring. These components work together to clean the windshield and prevent freezing, indicating that it is composed of multiple substances rather than a single pure compound.
