Evaluation and Selection of De-Icing Salt Based on Multi-Factor

Abstract: De-icing salts can greatly ease traffic congestion but introduce corrosion of concrete and damage to plant growth. The decision of which de-icing salt to use becomes a crucial issue. In this study, several representative de-icing salts were investigated, and the effects of de-icing ability, salt freezing corrosion on concrete, and plant growth were comprehensively tested. Finally, the decision of de-icing salt was made based on analytic hierarchy process (AHP). Results show that de-icing salts achieving the be… Show more

“…As a natural phenomenon, water-ice transformation occurs inevitably in a cold environment. The accumulation of ice causes problems in people’s daily lives, such as on roads, electric cables, aircraft, ships, wind turbine blades, and so forth. Active de-icing and passive anti-icing are good ways to tackle ice accumulation and reduce energy consumption. The special spherical shape of the water effectively reduces the contact area of superhydrophobic coating and water droplets, thus prolonging the water freezing time and achieving the passive de-icing .…”

“…For this reason, many studies focus on the analysis of these salts, such as the one carried out by Sanchez Thomas et al, which analyzes the behavior of the main de-icing salts applied in infrastructure maintenance, modifying external conditions such as temperature or W/C ratio [2]. Other authors such as Guoju Ke et al developed a decision procedure based on the analytic hierarchy process (AHP) to select the most suitable de-icing salt to be used [3]. Other outstanding studies detail the effect on the concrete using hardened cement paste modified with sodium silicate [4].…”
