Abstract

The maintenance of secure traffic conditions during winter is ensured by the use of de-icers. The type of de-icers used depends on the surfaces that need to be treated. However, these products can have important impacts provoking corrosion or aging appearance of materials surrounding the surfaces that are treated. In this work, we present a set of tests developped for the evaluation of the de-icer impacts on infrastructure materials, impacts investigated through aging tests.
