Understanding Deicers
Must know how to use deicers
Effectively and how they work.
What Is Anti-Icing?
Anti-icing is a snow and ice control measure to
prevent a strong bond between frozen
precipitation or frost and a pavement surface by
timely application of a chemical freezing point
depressant. Proactive approach.
Anti-icing Expectations
• Snow more easily removed
• Ice may not form or remain slushy
• Lower chemical usage
• Shoveling, plowing, brooming required
• Lower equipment maintenance costs
What Is De-Icing?
De-icing is an measure where a deicer is applied
to the top of an accumulation of snow, ice or
frost that is already bonded or formed to the
pavement surface. Reactive approach.
Equipment
Using the right equipment
For effective snow & ice control
New Bridges, Parking Garages, Elevated Walkways
CMA/NAAC/CF7 – “The problem solver”
FHWA - CMA Study Conclusions
• Concrete w/o rebar
– Little weight loss or spalling
• Concrete with rebar
– No damage
– 4 Year study
• Non-metallics
– Little affect
CMA – “The problem solver”
Costs of Using Chloride Based Deicers
• Cost of new construction - $20,000$24,000/Space
• Cost to repair chloride damage $3000$4000/space
• Cost of lost revenue while out of service?
• Cost of inconvenience to customers.
• Cost of demolition
• Cost of liability and insurability
• Can’t afford chloride deicers damage from
$50/space of salt over a 20 year period
CMA Effect on Chloride Contaminated Concrete
• The Danish corrosion centre, 1990
“CMA…seems to delay the onset of
corrosion.”
• BP research centre, 1989
“Changing…to acetate deicer
decreases the corrosion rate of steel…by
more than a factor of ten.”
