Applications
Anti-icing
Anti-icing
is the process of applying a layer of Liquidow™ calcium
chloride on hard road surfaces before an ice
or
snow
storm begins. Applying Liquidow™ calcium chloride to
the road before a storm help to prevent ice and
snow
from
bonding to the road permitting quicker and better removal of
the snow and ice. With no ice or snow build
up
slippery
road conditions are averted and snow removal crews can more
easily remove additional snow and ice since
they
are able to contact bare pavement on their initial
pass.
•Anti-icing
is a proactive approach to fighting ice and snow and
typically can be applied up to 24 hours
before
the start of inclement weather.
•Anti-icing
can also reduce or eliminate the need for applying granular
material that may be required
for
improved traction.
Deicing
Deicing
or pre-wetting with Liquidow™ calcium chloride involves
blending calcium chloride with granular
materials
such
as cinder chips, rock salt or sand. Pre-wetting with calcium
chloride reduces bounce and scatter of granular
materials
while improving traction in treated areas.
Blending
Liquidow™ calcium chloride with rock salt allows end users
to tailor their approach to each specific
situation
they
may encounter with fast ice-melting action and improved low
temperature performance.

Liquidow™
calcium chloride meets or exceeds ASTMD98 and AASHTO M144
standard specifications for calcium
chloride purity. Occidental Chemical Corporation a subsidiary
of Occidental Petroleum Corporation is a
leading producer
of calcium
chloride products under the names
Liquidow™ calcium chloride, DowFlake™Xtra, and Peladow©
calcium chloride
pellets.Many
snow removal contractors have benefited from the flexibility
that liquid calcium chloride provides by applying
the
chloride
as an anti-icing agent hours before the storm arrives.
