4 curiosities about the ice you did not know

Ice: that cold product of a translucent and whitish colour, formed when water reaches a temperature of 0° C. Is that all you know about ice? From Ice Tech we anticipate that this is only the tip of the Iceberg. Know some more curiosities about ice:

THERE ARE DIFFERENT TYPES OF ICE.

There are 16 different types of ice with different properties. In fact, the Ice Tech ice we manufacture is type IV, so imagine everything that escapes from our knowledge.

Among the ice types classified from I to XV, their differences are basically in the structures of their crystals. Some types have properties of the most surprising under certain special circumstances. For example, ice type XI has an electrical polarization that can be manipulated.

ICE IS FUNDAMENTAL FOR LIFE.

Not even oxygen can steal relevance to glaciers. About 10% of the Earth is covered by them and they are essential for the existence of our species. Did you know that 3/4 of all the fresh water in the world is contained in glaciers? That’s why we have to take care of them!

THE BASIS OF THE STUDY OF ICE IS IN THE ANTARCTICA.

Yes, it’s as cold as hell, but the ice age in Antarctica makes it an incredible place. The oldest ice layer in the area is thousands of years old, being able to preserve and provide us with all kinds of information about climate change throughout history. Most of the research is done on ice cores every year, so most scientists choose to go to those places year after year.

“TELEPHONE, MY HOUSE”.

Whether ET exists or not, ice is an indicator of extra-terrestrial life, because, ice is made up of a lot of hydrogen and oxygen compressed in various ways, tight and forming molecular bonds. It happens that these two elements are key to life.

What you will undoubtedly need to know is that the Ice Tech ice cocktails are from another planet ;).
