A platform for research: civil engineering, architecture and urbanism
Number of commercially available materials were evaluated by U S Air Force Materials Laboratory, including sodium chloride, calcium chloride, ammonium sulfate, urea, and urea-formamide-acetamide mixtures; tests were made by measuring how far penetrometer rod with 3/4 in. ball at end would penetrate about 8 mm of ice; rod was loaded to 1 lb; materials, generally applied at rate 1/4 psf but with some at 1/2 psf, were tested until failure at 15, 0, -10, -30 and -50 F; another series of corrosion tests were conducted to establish effect of these deicing chemicals on aircraft structural materials under stress; results are discussed.
