How soil salt or road salt works Road salt works by reducing the freezing point of water through a process known as freezing point depression. In short, salt sinks into its molecular ions in a small amount of liquid water. Particles added to water make it harder to freeze and reduce the freezing point of water. Therefore, for road salt to work, a small amount of liquid water is needed. This is part of the reason why road salt is not effective in very cold weather, because water is easily lost. An additional source of water is usually not necessary because there is enough liquid water, either covering the hydroxy salt coatings or produced from traffic friction. When cold weather is forecast, it is common for roads to be pre-treated with salt water, which is a solution of salt and water. This helps prevent ice from forming and reduces the amount of road calories needed by subsequent ice levels. When ice begins to form, road salt is used in rock fragments or pea seeds. Road salt may be mixed with dry or wet sand to facilitate the process. Other Chemicals Used for Disinfectants While rock salt is the cheapest and most common chemical for icy roads, sand may be used. Other chemicals are also available. Most of these other chemicals are used for sidewalks or further entrances. Every chemical, including road salt, has advantages and disadvantages. One of the biggest advantages of rock salt is that it is easily accessible and inexpensive. However, it does not work in very cold conditions and it means environmentally hazardous. The main concern is that sodium and chlorine get into the soil and water and increase salinity. Also, because rock salt is impure, other undesirable compounds are released into the ecosystem as contaminants. Examples of pollutants include lead, cadmium, chromium, iron, aluminum, manganese and phosphorus. There is no "perfect" antifreeze, so the goal is to use the best chemicals for the situation and use the least effective. Note that sodium chloride, potassium chloride, magnesium chloride, and calcium chloride are all chemically "salt", so each is aptly called "magic salt." Chemicals listed as corrosive may damage concrete, vehicles and other structures.
