Development of a New Non-Chloride Snow-Melting Agent

Abstract

This paper shows a method to develop a new non-chloride snow-melting agent to fight against snow and ice covered on the road in winter by recycling and reusing byproducts of nylon industry to make full use of waste and reduce environment. The agent doesn’t have Cl-and is friendly to environment. Furthermore, the snow-melting agent performances are evaluated. The results show that the CM-DBA is better than CMA on many aspects and better than chlorides except on melting snow and ice performance.

Preparation of long-lasting environment-friendly anti-icing agent suitable for snow and ice areas and its performance research

“…Kris et al [12] formulated a low-corrosive anticoagulant with ammonium succinate trihydrate, potassium succinate trihydrate, and sodium succinate trihydrate. In China, there are also anti-icing agents prepared from furfural wastewater [13] and nylon industrial by-products [14].…”
