P a g e | 115 Table 14 – PlusTi TM NO x Reduction – Orlando International Airport and Charlotte County (FL) 1 Source: Texas A&M Transportation Institute (TTI) UHI Mitigation: Asphalt pavements treated are consistently showing a 400% improvement in Solar Reflective Index (SRI) and qualify for U.S. Green Building Council LEED V4 Heat Island Reduction (HIR) and ISI ENV (Table 15) . Table 15 – PlusTi TM Solar Reflectance – Orlando International Airport Source: Texas A&M Transportation Institute (TTI) Hydrophilic/Hydrophobic Pavements: TiO 2 is naturally hydrophilic, so treated pavements indicate better water desorption properties to create a more hydrophobic or quick drying pavement effect. Prevents water intrusion, ice buildup, and surface ponding to reduce inclement weather-related traffic accidents (Table 16) .
