Abstract
Formic acid intercalated Mg-Al layered double hydroxide (Mg-Al Fo-LDH) was prepared by calcination reduction intercalation assembly technology. The structure of the deicing additive was characterized by fourier transform infrared (FTIR) and X-ray diffraction (XRD). The freezing point of aqueous solution with different quality of deicing additive and the surface freezing point and adhesion of asphalt mixture were tested. The results show that formic acid ion has been intercalated into the interlayer of Mg-Al layered double hydroxide by FTIR and XRD patterns. The freezing point of 5wt% Mg-Al Fo-LDH aqueous solution reaches -9.32 °C, while the surface freezing point of the asphalt mixture mixed with 5wt% Mg-Al Fo-LDH is -6.5°C. At -8 °C, the adhesion force of the surface ice layer is 78.4N, and after the asphalt mixture is soaked in water, the surface freezing point and adhesion force of the ice layer do not change.
