Ice slurry, which consists of water and fine ice has high fluidity and cooling efficiency, hence ice slurry is expected to be used for cold heat in various fields. However there is a problem that ice particles in ice slurry gradually cohere with passage of storage time. In this study, two types of silane coupling agents with different organic functional groups were added to the ice slurry, and the effect of silane coupling agent on the cohesion of ice slurry was investigated by measuring porosity, ice particle diameter, and cohesive force.
