(Top) Successive synchrotron X-ray powder diffraction patterns showing crystallization of the MEOS under fast-cooling conditions. Data collected at 15 keV (0.824603 Å); patterns are offset for clarity. The bottom trace is the liquid phase at a temperature of 238 K, reached 16 min after the start of the cooling ramp; the middle trace shows formation of the hexagonal ice phase 2 min later at 236 K; this is followed after another 2 min by the crystallization of multiple hydrated phases at 234 K, shown by the top trace. (Bottom) Waterfall-type plot of diffraction patterns, showing consistency of the phase assemblage once formed. Note, owing to colour map stretching to show both weak and strong features, relative variations in intensity for individual peaks are not visible.
