Data for X-ray diffraction to probe the kinetics of ice recrystallization inhibition

This method was used to evaluate the activity for a panel of known IRI active compounds, and shows strong agreement with results obtained from cryo-microscopy, as well as being advantageous in that time-dependent ice growth is easily extracted. Diffraction analysis also confirmed, by comparing the obtained diffraction patterns of both ice binding and non-binding additives, that the observed hexagonal ice diffraction patterns obtained cannot be used to determine which crystal faces are being bound.

This method may help in the discovery of new IRI active materials as well as enabling kinetic analysis of ice growth.<br><br>Data record consists of a zip archive containing subfolders, raw data in .dat format, a PDF documentation file summarising the raw XFAS data, and an accompanying readme file. Data files are named and organised according to the corresponding figure in the related paper. Further information on specific data files can be found in the accompanying readme file.
