De-Icer

As an alternative to ordinary salt (NaCl) as de-icer, several chemicals have been developed.

The most effective in terms of limiting the corrosion are acetates.

Tessenderlo Group's caustic potash is used for the production of the de-icers calcium magnesium and potassium magnesium acetates.

Potassium acetate solution is considered as an environmentally safe anti-freeze for aircraft runways.
