The valve it's self may grow some ice on it sine it is common for TXVs to keep the suction pressure a little lower then a fixed orfice system would. When that pressure falls below 32 degrees at a saturated temperature then ice will start to grow on the first couple inches of the evap coil but should melt away on off cycle.
