Protectosil® Corrosion Protection

Extended Service Life for structures

Corrosion of steel reinforced concrete structures is a major expense for private and public buildings, bridges or parking decks. This makes it all the more important to prevent corrosion of the rebars, which could undermine the mechanical stability of the structure. 

Over time steel reinforced concrete structures can corrode and lead to expensive repairs. The key to sustainable protection right from the start of construction is to stop water and harmful substances dissolved in water from entering the building material. Protectosil® CIT builds a long-lasting and deep barrier against rust.

Parking garages all over the world are affected by the consequences of water, dirt and salt coming in with vehicles and thus provoking corrosion. The use of Protectosil® CIT was a part of the repair strategy of the Monroe County parking garage in the USA and has provided corrosion protection for over 11 years.

Protectosil® CIT actively protects steel reinforced concrete. It reduces active corrosion and protects against the ingress of water and harmful soluble pollutants, even in concrete exposed to high corrosion conditions. Protectosil® CIT provides long-lasting protection.

Many public and private experts estimate the cost of repairing corrosion related damage in billions of dollars per year. Protectosil® CIT protects steel reinforced concrete by interrupting the corrosion mechanism. Even in concrete exposed to high corrosion conditions, Protectosil® CIT has proven its effectiveness.

Protectosil® CIT comes in two forms

  • Protectosil® CIT - liquid surface applied treatment which can be used on new concrete and restoration projects.
  • Protectosil® DRY CIT - corrosion protection additive for dry mortar formulations, especially concrete repair mortar for corrosion protection of reinforced concrete.

PRODUCTS

Protectosil® CIT dramatically reduces the chloride induced corrosion of steel concrete reinforcement via reaction of active material with the cement phase and the steel surface.

Protectosil® DRY CIT is a white free-flowing powder, especially suited for the corrosion protection of structures such as parking decks, facades, balconies, walkways, piers, bridge decks, beams, columns, and other steel reinforced concrete structures.
