Is potassium formate corrosive as snow melting agent? The manufacturer tells you

In winter, the "green snow clearing" is being implemented in the northern region. The snow clearing is mainly carried out by machinery and manpower, and the use of snow melting agent is strictly controlled. As for snow melting agent, previous experts have said that it has side effects, causing corrosion damage to municipal facilities such as green plants, urban roads and bridges. So can potassium formate be used as foliar fertilizer and snow melting agent? The manufacturer tells you.


For snow melting agent, relevant departments are considering whether there are side effects? What measures should be taken? Minimize the damage caused by snow melting agent.


Previously, experts from China Society of corrosion and protection have been introduced by the media. At present, snow melting agents are mainly divided into two categories at home and abroad. One is organic snow melting agent with potassium acetate as the main component. Although this kind of snow melting agent has good snow melting effect and no corrosion damage, its price is too high, which is generally only applicable to airports and other places.


The other is chlorine salt snow melting agent, including sodium chloride, calcium chloride, magnesium chloride, potassium chloride, etc., commonly known as "ice salt". Its advantage is cheap, the price is only 1/10 of that of organic snow melting agent, but its corrosion to large public infrastructure is very serious. Not only damage vegetation, more serious is the corrosion damage to urban roads, bridges and other municipal facilities.


What kind of snow melting agent is potassium formate? Is it corrosive?


Potassium formate deicing and snowmelting agent is a non nitrogen salt low chloride product, which has neither dangerous components nor any characteristics of damage and pollution factors, and is harmless to human body and aquatic animals. It can be completely biodegraded in water, and will not cause biological oxygen consumption. Therefore, the deicing agent is a very environmental protection deicing and snowmelting agent.


As far as potassium formate is concerned, it is a relatively high-quality environmental protection snow melting agent, which does not contain chlorine and has no corrosiveness. It is often used in airport runways, taxiways and aprons to remove ice and snow melting, so as to maintain the friction coefficient of the road surface to the maximum extent and ensure the safe and normal taxiing, takeoff and landing of the aircraft. Therefore, it plays an unparalleled role in ensuring the flight safety.
