Cortec's MCI (Migratory Corrosion Inhibitor) Coating for Rebar is water based, environmentally friendly product that provides corrosion protection in outside storage as well as offering powerful corrosion resistance for embedded rebars. As a soft film, MCI Coating for Rebar is an excellent choice for long-term indoor protection (up to 5 years) and short to medium-term (6-24 months) unsheltered outdoor protection.
Cortec’s patented MCI technology superiorly protects reinforcing metal in concrete from corrosion. MCIs rehabilitate existing concrete structures as well as extending the life span of new structures. Corroding rebar in deteriorating concrete often causes costly repairs, financial losses and even worse, hard injuries. MCI technology is the best prevention of these problems available on the market today.
Cortec MCI products for concrete maintain structural integrity, rehabilitate vulnerable structures and alleviate environmental concerns. A unique feature of MCI is that the inhibitor will migrate a considerable distance through concrete to protect embedded ferrous metals.
MCI Coating for Rebar protects steel, aluminum, cast iron and tin. It is dilutable with water and does not affect concrete adhesion to rebar. This safe to use inhibitor cures to a soft film and eventually hardens.
The recommended dry film thickness range is 25-50 microns (1-2 mils). It can be removed by using an alkaline cleaner such as MCI-2060 if needed the coating works well in SO2 and H2S environment.
