Abstract:
A glycol-based deicer composition having ice adhesion repression properties is provided. Ice adhesion control derives from the presence of a film of the composition which is retained on the deiced surfaces and interferes with adhesion of new ice. The composition includes one or more anionic or nonionic surfactants selected to provide a spreading wetting value of 0 to about -5 degrees per centimeter.
