I’d like to ask an expert: Why can ice slurry be used to slow down the rate of chemical reactions?

As the title suggests, I’m wondering if any expert knows the principle behind this; please give me some guidance I work for Guangzhou Hemu Refrigeration Equipment Co., Ltd. Last year, we supplied several flow ice machines for a project carried out by Shanghai Huayi Group; these machines were used to control the timing of organic compound production processes in reaction vessels. It is said that the latent heat of the ice slurry, along with the adsorption effect resulting from the large surface area of the ice crystal particles, can slow down the rate of chemical reactions. I study thermal physics, and I can understand the principle of cooling through the latent heat of ice slurry. However, I don’t understand how the adsorption force of ice crystals in the slurry can slow down the reaction rate. Therefore, I would like to ask if any expert could provide some guidance; I would be extremely grateful!
Multiple tech forums are posting ads – are you crazy?
The reaction is an endothermic reaction, right?? By intentionally keeping the temperature low, the overall reaction rate slows down. On the other hand, if it’s an exothermic reaction, removing heat speeds up the reaction rate
In the technical discussion, you posted two unrelated advertisement photos – what’s the point of that? It’s likely that the movement speed of the material is reduced through adsorption in order to delay things
This is a real project, designed under the leadership of East China University of Science and Technology. Although there is an element of promotion involved, it is also a way to seek advice from everyone
The main goal is to introduce this excellent application to everyone
