PEAK® SF Solid Runway Deicer is a 98% minimum active ingredient granular deicer composed of sodium formate and proprietary corrosion inhibitors. This solid deicer and anti-icer is fast-acting and environmentally acceptable for use on all airside operational surfaces as well as landside applications. PEAK® SF Solid Runway Deicer is manufactured to meet the strict performance and ecological requirements of AMS 1431A. Additionally, Transport Canada and the Federal Aviation Administration have evaluated PEAK® SF for general airport use and have found it to be a highly effective substitute for urea.

Deicing
The primary purpose of chemical deicing is not to melt surface ice, but rather to diffuse down through the snow and ice to break the bond between frozen precipitation and the runway.

Anti-Icing
The most cost effective way to utilize runway deicing fluid is by preventing frozen precipitation from sticking. The presence of residual PEAK® SF on the operational surface after deicing serves as an effective anti-icing agent.

Prewetting
Prewetting is not necessary. However, if desired, apply at a ratio of 70 parts solid to 30 parts liquid (PEAK® PA).

Equipment
Conventional mechanical spreaders are acceptable. A combination spreader or one which "prewets" the solid at the spinner with a liquid deicer/anti-icer is highly recommended for maximum performance.

Storage and Handling
PEAK® SF should be stored in its original container in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area to avoid moisture pick-up and caking. During the deicing season, unused portions of PEAK® SF can be stored in piles, protected from precipitation, without caking difficulties. When handling PEAK® SF, avoid contact with skin and eyes.
