A comprehensive characterization of ice nucleation by three different types of cellulose particles immersed in water
We present the laboratory results of immersion freezing efficiencies of cellulose particles at supercooled temperature (T) conditions. Three types of chemically homogeneous cellulose samples are used as surrogates that represent supermicron and submicron ice-nucleating plant structural polymers. The...

Summary: | We present the laboratory results of immersion freezing efficiencies of
cellulose particles at supercooled temperature (T) conditions. Three types of
chemically homogeneous cellulose samples are used as surrogates that
represent supermicron and submicron ice-nucleating plant structural
polymers. These samples include microcrystalline cellulose (MCC), fibrous
cellulose (FC) and nanocrystalline cellulose (NCC). Our immersion freezing
dataset includes data from various ice nucleation measurement techniques
available at 17 different institutions, including nine dry dispersion
and 11 aqueous suspension techniques. With a total of 20 methods, we
performed systematic accuracy and precision analysis of measurements from
all 20 measurement techniques by evaluating T-binned (1 ∘C)
data over a wide T range (−36 ∘C |
