Abstract

In this paper, the crystallization and relaxation of NaCl aqueous solutions at low temperatures were studied by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) analysis and dielectric analysis. From DSC analysis, the three-phase composite ice structural model consisting of pure ice, salty ice, and amorphous ice after the liquid-solid phase transition of NaCl aqueous solution under low temperature is established. The conversion rate of pure ice decreases monotonically with the increase of solution concentration. From dielectric analysis, the relaxation time of water molecules in composite ice decreases significantly at first and then increases slightly with increasing concentration, while the relaxation activation energy increases significantly at first and then decreases slightly. This is due to the damaging effect of ions on hydrogen bonds between water molecules and the interaction between anions and cations. This study can provide theoretical support and experimental basis for cryopreservation technology of biomaterials controlled by electromagnetic field.
