Protectosil® CIT for perfect corrosion protection
Protectosil® CIT protects steel-reinforced structures permanently against corrosion
Protectosil® CIT is a surface-applied clear liquid that penetrates concrete and provides an organofunctional molecule to inhibit the electrochemical corrosion process between the rebar and the chloride ions, and oxygen and moisture within the concrete.

protectosil® CIT
dramatically reduces the chloride-ion-induced corrosion rate of concrete steel reinforcement
reduces corrosion in carbonated concrete steel-reinforced structures
is an easy-to-use treatment that penetrates the concrete and chemically bonds with steel, cement paste and other siliceous materials
will not discolor or change the substrate’s surface appearance or surface friction
effectively inhibits macrocell (mat-to-mat) and microcell (along rebar) corrosion of steel reinforced concrete
mitigates corrosion of rebar even in structures subjected to an environment with high relative humidity
repels additional water and chloride ions
