Ice Breaker Thaw Granules can be used at a temperature of -50 °C.
Ice Breaker Thaw Granules release heat during the melting and dissolving process, and this leads to a high melting speed. The granular de-icer penetrates into already existing and dangerous sheets of black ice and breaks the bond holding ice to the surface (undercutting effect).
Particularly at low temperatures, Ice Breaker Thaw Granules can be effectively used, especially in those temperature ranges where road salt (NaCl) stops working, or the required quantity increases very considerably.
If used as a preventive measure, Ice Breaker Thaw Granules have an effect for up to three days, depending on the weather conditions. The sticking of snow and ice to the pavement is reduced and snow can be removed from the treated surfaces. The formation of ice sheets and of a close covering of snow diminishes. Surfaces remain longer safe for vehicle and foot traffic.
