Abstract With the rapid expansion of China's highway network, winter precipitation in northern regions poses significant challenges to the transportation safety. De-icing agents have the advantages of simplicity in operation, and high efficiency in melting ice and snow in comparison to the mechanical snow removal, thus greatly enhance the convenience of traffic. However, the long term use of traditional chloride-based de-icing agents (NaCl, CaCl2, MgCl2, etc) will cause corrosion and failure of rout surface and other infrastructures and also causes irreversible damage to the environment. This paper systematically analyzes current standards for de-icing agents at home and abroad, a critical assessment was made of the formulations, actual application processes and limitations of conventional chloride-based and alternative non-chloride de-icing agents, and further reviews the recent advancements in eco-friendly composite de-icing technologies. Particular emphasis is placed on innovative material combinations that leverage synergistic effects between components to enhance ice-melting efficiency while minimizing environmental impact. The review concludes with a forward-looking perspective on sustainable development strategies for next-generation de-icing formulations, addressing critical needs for infrastructure preservation and ecological protection. We hope the paper could provide some critical insights to guide the rational design of high-performance, environmentally benign composite de-icing agents.
