The effect of particle size on the ice nucleating behaviour of AgI‐AgBr‐CuI system has been studied for the first time. Six samples of different molar ratios and five sizes in each sample are considered in the present study. It is found that the nucleation temperature is the highest for particle size in the range of 60 ± 5 u m.
