Experience the fascinating process of water freezing as it transforms into a dazzling kaleidoscope of colorful ice crystals right before your eyes. Unlike ordinary freezing, which happens too gradually to observe, our device uses polarized light and an ultra-cold slab to enable you to watch water crystallize rapidly in real time. The resulting colorful mosaic of ice is a unique spectacle, different every time.
How Does It Work?
Special light filters called polarizers allow you to see the colors within the ice. These colors emerge due to two factors: slight variations in the thickness of the ice and tiny stresses that occur as the ice crystals form and collide. The glass, chilled by coolant, becomes so cold that when water is squirted onto it, it instantly freezes into crystalline patterns.
On rare and exciting occasions, you might witness a sudden and abrupt freezing of all the water on the slab. This phenomenon occurs when the water becomes supercooled—cooled to well below the freezing point—until a seed crystal forms, causing the ice to suddenly spread across the surface.
Our product offers a unique and mesmerizing way to explore the physical properties of water and ice. Ideal for educational institutions, science centers, or simply for those curious about the natural world, this device not only provides entertainment but also a rich educational experience. By unveiling the hidden beauty of freezing water, this tool will inspire wonder and curiosity in both children and adults.
