Hi I was interested to get some insights on how you would be able to instantly shatter an ice lattice. Instant instense heating of very cold glass for example will cause the lattice to break but i was interested why an ice lattice responds differently. Is there a temperature where it would shatter rather than melt? If not then why?
I presume that a shattering can occur if a high intensity electrical impulse is applied to the lattice but I’m not sure how high the voltage would need to be or how it would respond. Does anyone know? And is there any way that the lattice can be shattered otherwise? Any insight by someone would be helpful. Many thanks.
