Vapor deposited amorphous ice, investigated by N2-adsorption at 77 K, was found to be a microporous solid. Micropore volumes between 0.21 and 0.12 cu cm/g were determined by comparison plots and Dubinin-Redushkevich (1947) plots. Warming of the adsorbent to 113 K caused sintering and reduction of apparent surface area by about an order of magnitude; in the presence of adsorbed gas, large amounts of gas were enclosed in the solid. The influence of micropores on the H2 recombination rate on amorphous ice in interstellar dust and on adsorption of volatile gases in comets is discussed briefly.
