Summary

In order to clarify the effects of electric charge on the freezing of supercooled water, experiments were carried out on various kinds of electrodes in supercooled water. A water sample was kept in a test tube and cooled at a constant cooling rate. When the water sample was maintained in a supercooled state, an electric charge was applied to the water sample using a low electric current. The degree of supercooling was measured continuously. Six kinds of materials were used as electrodes: aluminium, copper, silver, gold, platinum and carbon, with various results. The reason underlying the differences in the degree of supercooling on freezing using six materials was discussed.
