In this laboratory study, the performance and impacts of several new types of anti-icer were
examined. A chemico-biological process was employed to prepare liquid extracts from two …

Agro-based products and complex chlorides/minerals (CCM) based products are
increasingly employed in snow and ice control operations, either used alone or more …

Presently, the most common freezing point depressants (FPDs) used for roadway winter
operations are sodium chloride (NaCl), magnesium chloride,(MgCl2), calcium chloride …

Four commercially available snow-and ice-control products made from naturally sourced
materials were tested laboratory. Using 23 wt.% NaCl (salt brine) as a control, ice-melting …

The cost of deicing chemicals is a significant part of the Nebraska Department of Road's
winter maintenance budget. The objectives of this research are to review literature to …

Applying prewet deicers to roads during adverse winter weather is a cost-effective strategy
to improve transportation safety and mobility. Prewet deicers have a small amount of liquid …
