Product Name:

Calcium Magnesium Acetates Solid Commercial Deicer


Performance:

Works best above 20°F (-7°C).

Has long lasting effect - better than salt or urea.

Breaks/inhibits bond between snow/ice and pavement.

Creates a dry, powdery snow which improves traction.

Benefits:

Low corrosion: less corrosive than tap water. 

Safe for concrete: the safest deicer for concrete.

Excellent inhibitor: reduces chloride corrosion.

Safe for the environment: biodegradable, low toxicity.

Residual effect: requires fewer applications.

Multi-purpose: use straight, with salt, with sand, or as a liquid.


Application:

Application: Apply early in the storm to prevent snow/ice bonding.

First application: Commercial = 15-20 lbs./1000 ft2(75-100 g/m2).

                           Highway = 300-400 lbs./lane mile (20-40 g/m2).

Wait at least 20 minutes to remove snow/ice.

Re-apply when new snow/ice accumulation shows first tendency to pack (bond).


Environment:

Biodegrades to CO2and H2O

Calcium and magnesium increase soil permeability

Essentially non-toxic to aquatic species

Poor mobility in soil - unlikely to reach groundwater

Safe for vegetation

Does not contain nitrogen, sodium, or chlorides


Handling:

May be stored indefinitely if kept dry

Take care to avoid caking caused by excess moisture

Excessive handling may cause dustiness
