Phase diagram of water

Ice VI is a form of ice that exists at high pressure at the order of about 1 GPa (= 10 000 bar) and temperatures ranging from 130 up to 355 Kelvin (−143 °C up to 82 °C); see also the phase diagram of water. Its discovery and the discovery of other high-pressure forms of water were published by P.W. Bridgman in January 1912.[1]

It is part of one of the inner layers of Titan.[2]

Properties

Ice VI has a density of 1.31 g/cm3 and a tetragonal crystal system with the space group P42/nmc; its unit cell contains 10 water molecules and has the dimensions a=6.27 Å and c=5.79 Å.[3] The triple point of ice VI with ice VII and liquid water is at about 82 °C and 2.22 GPa and its triple point with ice V and liquid water is at 0.16 °C and 0.6324 GPa = 6324 bar.[4]

Ice VI undergoes phase transitions into ices XV[5] and XIX [6] upon cooling depending on pressure as hydrochloric acid is doped.
