Specification.
The multitude of products which can be used in winter maintenance - liquid or solid, natural or
industrial produced substances – requires the defining of performance criteria with which the products
have to comply.
These criteria are used to assess the usability of the de-icing products while taking into consideration all
aspects of the safety of the road user, of the protection of the environment and of the road conditions.

Sampling
B.1 Solid form
B.1.1 Package shipments
Select not less than three containers at random from the shipment. For bags, take 0,5 kg samples by
means of a sampling tube or other method that will ensure a sample that is representative of the
material in the bag. Penetrate with the sampling tube or other method at least 300 mm into the bag.
B.1.2 Bulk shipments
For solid de-icers in bulk lots the sampling shall be in accordance with the methods described in
EN 932-1.
Select samples from at least three locations in the shipment. Scrape aside the top layer to a depth of
approximately 300 mm. Use a sampling tube or other method, to obtain a sample extending from the
cleared surface to at least 1 m. Each sample shall contain at least 1,0 kg of material.
Use caution during the sampling operation to avoid exposing the sample unduly to atmospheric
moisture. Immediately and thoroughly mix the individual samples to form a representative composite
sample of material and store in a sealed glass or suitable plastic container.
B.2 Liquid form
Obtain a sample of at least 500 ml from the bulk shipping container or storage tank or during discharge.
Recirculate the solution in the tank until it is homogenous, then take one or more samples by means of
an appropriate sampling device.

moisture. If more than one sample is taken, immediately and thoroughly mix the individual samples to
form a representative composite sample of material and store in a sealed glass or suitable plastic
container.

Test methods
C.1 Determination of de-icing performance (Nancy-Test)
C.1.1 Scope
This test method covers the provision of data on the ice melting capacity of solid and liquid de-icing
agents as a function of time. This test is a special application of SHRP H-205.1 and SHRP H-205.2.
C.1.2 References
— SHRP H-205.1, Test method for ice melting of solid de-icing chemicals [4]
— SHRP H-205.2, Test method for ice melting of liquid de-icing chemicals [4]
C.1.3 Principle
This test utilizes a sheet of ice of uniform thickness (3,175 mm), frozen in a flat, circular Plexiglas dish.
After equilibrium to the desired temperature, a weighed quantity of solid or liquid de-icing agent is
distributed over the surface of the ice. At specified time intervals, generated brines are decanted by
tilting the specimen to the perimeter of the dish, withdrawn via a syringe, measured for volume, and
reintroduced to the test specimen so the melting process can continue.
The test is performed at a temperature of −10 °C ± 1 °C.
C.1.4 Equipment
The test equipment includes the following key elements:
C.1.4.1 Plexiglas test dish
Dimensions in mm
Key
1 set screw
Figure C.1 — Test dish (plexiglas plate)
Four set screws allow the level adjustment of the test dish during the phase of freezing the ice sheet.
C.1.4.2 Plexiglas cover plate
A Plexiglas plate of 1,5 mm thickness. It is placed on the test dish during the freezing in order to limit
the evaporation and sublimation.
C.1.4.3 Disc for surface finishing
This stainless steel disc is used prior to the test to smooth the surface of the ice and to eliminate all
unevenness developed during freezing.
Dimensions in mm

The cold test chamber is used for freezing water sheets and allows testing at temperature stipulated in
C.3.
C.1.5 Auxiliary equipment
C.1.5.1 Analytical balance
— Balance with the scales: 0 g to (6 000 ± 0,1) g.

C.1.5.2 Usual laboratory device
— Sample bottle 200 ml.
— Syringes 60 ml capacity with 1 ml graduation.
— Syringes 5 ml capacity with 0,2 ml graduation.

C.1.6 Procedure
C.1.6.1 Preparation of the ice sheet
— 130 ml of de-ionized water is placed in the test dish (this quantity corresponds after freezing to an
ice thickness of 3,175 mm in the test dish);
— the dish is then placed in a cold room on a level surface. During the freezing at the test temperature
use the Plexiglas cover plate for 12 h;
— after freezing, smoothing the surface of the ice formed by applying a rotating movement of the steel
disc (see C.4.3.) carried initially at 20 °C;
— refreeze the surface film of water formed by this application for 2 h.
C.1.6.2 The sample
Maintain the test products to the test temperature for 60 min before use.
C.1.6.2.1 Solid products
1)
— Take with a spatula (4,17 ± 0,01) g of solid product that is being tested.
— Take a second sample to determine the percentage of water.
C.1.6.2.2 Liquid products
— Take 3,8 ml of liquid product using a syringe.
C.1.6.3 Test
— Remove the cover plate from the test dish;
— spread the sample evenly over the ice surface;
— start the chronometer at the end of spreading (time t );
2)
— move at an orbital rotation ;
— at t = T + 10 min, collect the brine with the syringe;
1 0
— read the volume collected in the syringe (in the case of liquid products subtract the product volume
originally distributed on the ice surface);
— after reading, immediately return the brine into the test dish evenly over the test area;
— continue moving and resume these operations for the time intervals 10 min, 20 min, 30 min,
40 min, 50 min and 60 min;
— repeat this test three times.

ice melted and the time, over a period of 60 minutes:
PFE = ∫ Qdt as ml x min
where
Q
is the amount of ice melted in ml;
d is the dependence of time;
t
