- Product Description
Airport Runway Solid Potassium Formate - Professional Aviation Deicing Solution
SHANXI ZHAOYI CHEMICAL CO., LTD brings you aviation-grade Airport Runway Solid Potassium Formate with proven performance since 1988. Our tech-grade formulation delivers ≥97% assay purity with ultra-low moisture content (≤1%) and minimal impurities. Manufactured in our 27,000 m² facility with 150,000-ton annual capacity, this product effectively melts ice down to -25°C to -30°C while maintaining zero damage to aircraft components. With advanced anti-caking technology keeping agglomeration below 3%, ISO/KOSHER/HALAL certifications, and aviation-grade purification processes, we ensure consistent quality for international airports. Our product replaces corrosive chloride salts and environmentally harmful urea, offering superior BOD/COD profiles that meet modern stormwater regulations while protecting your runway infrastructure investment.
Key Features & Benefits

How It Works?
Ice Penetration Mechanism
When you apply our product to frozen surfaces, potassium formate crystals immediately begin dissolving. The resulting solution penetrates ice layers rapidly due to its low freezing point characteristics.
Freezing Point Depression
The dissolved formate ions disrupt water molecule bonding patterns. This creates a brine solution with significantly lower freezing temperature than pure water, causing ice to melt even in extreme cold.
Heat Generation Process
The dissolution process is exothermic, releasing thermal energy. This additional heat accelerates the melting action, giving you faster runway clearing times during critical weather events.
Long-Lasting Protection
After initial application, a thin protective film remains on runway surfaces. This residual layer prevents ice reformation for extended periods, reducing the frequency of repeat applications you'll need.
