Sorry, the other English was removed. Yes, it could slow its melting. I am uncertain how to make it more reflective.

Making the ice surface rough so that it scatters the incoming light is most effective to slow down melting. Alternatively if you can change the colour of the surface under the ice this will affect the rate of melting. Ice on a black road melts faster than that on a white surface.
