Abstract:

Deicing salts are widely used for anti-icing and de-icing operations in pavements. While historically sodium chloride may have been the ; deicer most commonly used, a wide range of deicing salts have begun to be used to operate at lower temperatures, to “stick to the road ; better” and to improve other aspects of performance such as environmental impact or corrosion resistance. It has been observed that ; some chloride based deicing salts can react with the calcium hydroxide in the mixture resulting in the formation of calcium oxychloride ; an expansive phase that can damage concrete pavements, especially at the joints. This report describes the two main objectives of this ; work. First, the report documents the development a standardized approach to use low temperature differential scanning calorimetry ; (LT-DSC) to assess the influence of cementitious binder composition on the potential for calcium oxychloride formation. Second, this ; work will assess the influence of blended salt cocktails on the formation of calcium oxychloride.
