'''Ice XVI''' is the least dense (0.81 g/cm{{sup|3}})<ref name="falenty2014" /> experimentally obtained crystalline form of [[ice]]. It is topologically equivalent to the empty structure of [[Clathrate hydrate#Structure|sII]] [[clathrate hydrates]]. It was first obtained in 2014 by removing gas molecules from a [[neon clathrate]] under vacuum at temperatures below 147 K.<ref name="falenty2014">{{Cite journal | doi = 10.1038/nature14014| pmid = 25503235| title = Formation and properties of ice XVI obtained by emptying a type sII clathrate hydrate| journal = Nature| volume = 516| issue = 7530| pages = 231| year = 2014| last1 = Falenty | first1 = A. | last2 = Hansen | first2 = T.

Above 145–147 K at positive pressures ice XVI transforms into the stacking-faulty [[Ice Ic|Ice I<sub>c</sub>]] and further into ordinary [[Ice Ih|Ice I<sub>h</sub>]] . Theoretical studies predict Ice XVI to be thermodynamically stable at negative pressures (that is under [[tension (physics)|tension]]).<ref name="conde2009">{{cite journal|last1=Conde|first1=M.M.|last2=Vega|first2=C.|last3=Tribello|first3=G.A.|last4=Slater|first4=B.|title=The phase diagram of water at negative pressures: Virtual ices|journal=[[J.
