- Name
- amorphous H2O
- Official name
- Low density amorphous water ice
- Family
- molecular solid
- Class
- hydrogen bonded molecular solid
- Compound type
- inorganic molecular solid
- Comments
- The initial crystalline H2O ice film was submitted to irradiation leading to amorphization. The density of the resulting amorphous water ice has not been determined.
