Abstract
An inorganic halide and a water soluble hydroxy-containing organic compound or urea are useful in treating particulate solids such that the solids are more easily dumped after being exposed to freezing temperatures. The combination of the inorganic halide and hydroxy-containing organic compound or urea not only reduce the strength of ice formed between the particles but also reduce the amount of particulate solids which sticks to the sides of the transport or storage container from which the solids are removed.
