Scope
Form: This specification covers an ethylene glycol base deicing fluid in the form of a concentrated liquid. Application: Primarily for use on exterior surfaces of parked aircraft for the removal of frozen deposits of frost and ice. May be applied in either the concentrated or diluted form. 1.3 Precautions: 1.3.1 This deicing formulation may be mildly toxic and contact wlth human skin and eyes should be avoided. Prolonged exposure to concentrations exceeding the established threshold lim9t values (TLV) for the product or 1ts ma~or components should also be avolded. 1.3.2 Although the fluid has a minimum flash point requirement of 100??(212??gt;@ it should be used with extreme care when applied.around heaters or engine exhausts. 1.3.3 Cautlon should be exerclsed 1n the use of aqueous glycol deicing solutlons in and around aircraft having silver or silver-coated electrical/electronic circuitry. Dehydrolysls reactions@ which result in fire@ may occur when such aqueous glycol solutions contact silver or silver-coated circuits@ such as defectively insulated wires@ switches@ or circuit breakers@ which are carrying direct current. 1.3.4 Airport authorities are required to ascertain the friction coefficient of the runway following contamination by the deicing fluid. Safety - Hazardous Materials: While the materials@ methods@ applications@ / and processes described or referenced 1n this specification may involve the use of hazardous materials@ this specification does not address the hazards which may be involved in such use. It is the sole responsibility of the user to ensure familiarity with the safe and proper use of any hazardous materials and to take necessary precautionary measures to ensure the health and safety of all personnel involved.
