- What is supercooling and why does it happen? - ScienceOxygenSupercooling is defined as the state in which the temperature of the liquid or gas is lowered below the freezing point without letting the gas or liquid turn into a solid. This process is also known as undercooling. What happens during supercooling?
- supercooling - Glossary of MeteorologyThe reduction of temperature of any liquid below the melting point of that substance's solid phase; that is, cooling beyond its nominal freezing point. A liquid may be supercooled to varying degrees, depending upon the relative lack of freezing nuclei or solid boundary irregularities within its environment, and freedom from agitation.
- Supercooling of Water | Harvard Natural Sciences Lecture DemonstrationsPure water cooled to below 273K without freezing; seeded to spontaneously crystallize. A liquid can be taken to a temperature below its freezing point if it is cooled slowly and there are no nucleation sites for crystallization to begin.
- What is Supercooling? - wintersmiths.comSupercooling is the process of cooling a liquid below its freezing point without it becoming solid. For water, supercooling can occur when the liquid is pure and lacks nucleation points. Once a disturbance or impurity is introduced, the supercooled water will freeze almost instantly, creating ice in a dramatic fashion.
