Study of Ice-Forming Properties of Zinc Oxide and Silver Iodide Nanoreagents

摘要

The article is devoted to the development of methods for dispersing nanoreagents based on zinc oxide and silver iodide and the study of their ice-forming properties. It is shown that nanotubes of zinc oxide and silver iodide have good ice-forming properties with a specific yield of ice-forming nuclei up to 1013r-1. Unlike traditional reagents, the activity of zinc oxide nanotubes is manifested when they are dispersed directly into the cloudy environment; the maximum specific yield is observed at higher temperatures (1013 ice crystals at temperatures of about 0 °C).
