Type IV de-icing fluid is a viscous, non-Newtonian fluid formulated to prevent ice formation on aircraft surfaces during flight. It contains long-chain polymer thickening agents that form a gel-like coating and is typically applied hot, either as a pre-departure anti-icing treatment or via onboard anti-icing systems.
Key benefits- Made in the EU
