Are you talking about sublimation, as in when a compound changes from a solid (e.g. frozen state) to a gas WITHOUT going through the liquid stage?
I guess you can think of that as "unfreezable" since you didn't really melt it (the opposite of "freezing" it) haha!
Or perhaps you mean the opposite which is deposition??? going from gas directly to a solid? ... so you never "freeze" it because it never goes into the liquid for you to freeze??? However, you can also argue that you are freezing the gas. lol
Or...
you mean Supercooling, as in cooling a liquid to a lower temperature than its freezing point WITHOUT it becoming a solid???
I think that might be the closest to what you're asking.

I am led to understand that all matter is freezable, in other words there is nothing that is unfreezable? I think! Have a good day

There is nothing that is 'unfreezable'. All matter can exist in all 3 phases.........solid, liquid, and gas.

I assume you are asking for the term for something which retains a liquid state beyond its freezing point
a term for such a phenomenon is "supercooled".

Believe it or not, it's actually 'unfreezable' or 'bound'

but no matter exists that is unfreezable.
why define a term for something that can not exist ?
