Eisflockenpunkt

English translation: flocculation point

German to English translations [PRO]
Science - Chemistry; Chem Sci/Eng / antifreeze
German term or phrase: Eisflockenpunkt
In a list of properties of antifreeze:
Frostschutz (Eisflockenpunkt): ca. -23 °C

This appears to be the temperature at which the first crystals are formed.
Is it simply "crystallization point"?
