The phrase "amorphous ice" is correct and usable in written English.
It can be used in scientific contexts, particularly in discussions about the structure and properties of ice in various states.
Example: "Researchers have discovered that amorphous ice can exist at extremely low temperatures, challenging our understanding of water's behavior."
Alternatives: "non-crystalline ice" or "disordered ice".
By the time the solar system was a million years old, it was full of specks of carbon and silicon carrying their mantle of irregular, amorphous ice.
An increase in the gas content in layers of amorphous ice causes an increase in the crystallization temperature without any significant changes in the glass transition temperature.
The paper considers different models of the icy regolith structure and composition: pure uniform amorphous ice; a porous dispersive system with ice-filled pores and voids; permafrost.
The low contrast of unstained biological material embedded in amorphous ice and the need to minimise the exposure of these radiation-sensitive samples to the electron beam result in a poor signal-to-noise ratio.
Layers of amorphous ice saturated with methane, ethane, propane and carbon dioxide were obtained by condensation of molecular beams of rarefied vapor and gas on a substrate cooled with liquid nitrogen.
In the preparation of cryo-samples, the specimen is rapidly frozen and becomes thus embedded in a layer of vitreous (amorphous) ice (7, 8).
But Stanley and coworkers have shown that as cooling continues, high and low density liquid waters pass smoothly into high and low density amorphous ices.
Recent analysis of the data obtained from Spitzer observation of the comet in 2006 compared with laboratory spectra had revealed amorphous water ice on the surface.
Our result confirms the presence of amorphous water ice on the surface of the comet and insists for more observations for a better understanding.
In contrast, with the vitrification method, a solution containing a high concentration of a CPA is rapidly cooled to achieve the transition from the liquid phase to the solid phase (amorphous) without ice crystal formation [ 36].
In addition, trapped primordial volatile gasses are released when pristine amorphous water ices just below the dust mantle crystallize to form a crystalline ice crust.
