This study was conducted to determine the effects of runway anti-icing chemicals on traction. Chemicals were applied to cold runway surfaces, and water was added in increments to simulate freezing rain. Friction coefficients were measured throughout with a Saab Friction Tester. The results of the study show that pavements in otherwise good condition will not experience an unsafe drop in friction levels when anti-icing chemicals are applied at the manufacturers' recommended rates, but that pavements with poor microtexture may become slippery.
