Résumé

Scanning tunnelling microscopy (STM) was used to investigate the surface morphology of ice crystals containing adsorbed poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVOH) molecules inside a cold room at -7.0 °C. PVOH was used as a substitute for antifreeze protein (AFP) type I, which is an effective additive for making ice slurries resistant to recrystallization. The STM images revealed microscale grooves on ice crystals made from PVOH solutions, indicating that PVOH molecules significantly influence the surface structure of the ice crystal. the length of each groove was similar to that of a PVOH molecule, indicating that PVOH molecules were absorbed on the ice crystal surfaces. The interaction force between PVOH molecule, and the ice surface was discussed by assuming a molecular structure of PVOH on the ice crystal surface, and the depression of the local freezing point was analyzed based on the surface curvature of ice revealed by STM.
