Abstract
Phase equilibria in sections of the potassium formate–glycerol–water system were studied by visual polythermal analysis at temperatures of 0 to –60°C. The potassium formate-to-glycerol ratio in the sections was varied from 3 : 1 to 1 : 3. Mixtures that form low-temperature eutectics were found and were determined to be promising as new anti-icing agents with good ice-melting capacity.
