Ice Penetration Test Method For Ams1431 And Ams1435 Runway Deicing Anti Icing Products PDF Download

This test method provides stakeholders (runway deicing chemical manufacturers, users, regulators, and airport authorities) with a relative ice penetration capacity of runway deicing/anti-icing chemicals, by measuring the ice penetration as a function of time. Such runway deicing/anti-icing chemicals are often also used on taxiways and other paved areas. This test method does not quantitatively measure the theoretical or extended time of ice penetration capability of ready-to-use runway deicing/anti-icing chemicals in liquid or solid form. This SAE Aerospace Information Report AIR6211 does not fit the definition of an AIR document; therefore, it is cancelled and superseded by the SAE Aerospace Standard document AS6211, which contains specific test methods and protocols. The new SAE Aerospace Standard document contains additional information on the preparation of reference control solutions. The new document also incorporates some editorial changes.
