DETERMINING THE CORROSIVE ACTION OF DE-ICING SALTS

COMPARATIVE TESTS WERE CARRIED OUT INTO THE EFFECT OF DE-ICING SALTS ON CAR BODY METAL. THESE TESTS INCLUDED THE DIPPING TEST, SALT-WATER SPRAY TEST, AND A RECENTLY DEVELOPED TEST IN WHICH 3% SALT SOLUTIONS ARE SPRAYED ONTO SMOOTH AND CORRUGATED METALS. THIS NEW SPRAY TEST WAS FOUND TO BE PARTICULARLY SUITABLE FOR STUDIES ON THE CORROSIVE ACTION OF DE-ICING SALTS. /FG/RRL/
