  -> Sim, também pensei nisso na hora de responder, mas a cabeça falhou em encontrar um termo que englobasse tudo numa paulada só. Talvez simplesmente "derreter gelo", já que gelo é gelo independente da superfície em que esteja?

Sal utilizado para descongelar algo rapidamente


Explanation:
Sem contexto para saber onde o termo é inserido é um pouco difícil, porém, o sal é utilizado para descongelar carne, peixe, etc. mais rapidamente. Penso que se deva tratar disso mesmo.

Sodium chloride (salt), magnesium chloride, calcium chloride, calcium magnesium acetate and potassium acetate are chemicals used to prevent and remove snow and ice from roadways. VDOT uses liquid magnesium chloride, calcium chloride and sodium chloride for anti-icing and pre-treatment.

sal-gema/halite


Explanation:
Salt is used extensively in cooking as a flavor enhancer, and to cure a wide variety of foods such as bacon and fish.[...] Halite is also often used both residentially and municipally for managing ice. Because brine (a solution of water and salt) has a lower freezing point than pure water, putting salt or saltwater on ice that is below 0 °C (32 °F) will cause it to melt — this effect is called freezing-point depression. It is common for homeowners in cold climates to spread salt on their sidewalks and driveways after a snow storm to melt the ice.

Example sentence(s):
  • O sal-gema tem larga aplicação nas indústrias química e alimentar.
