RUSSTECH RCI
RUSSTECH RCI is a calcium nitrite liquid corrosion-inhibiting admixture for concrete containing steel reinforcement. RUSSTECH RCI admixture chemically retards the onset of corrosion action of chlorides on reinforcing steel and will increase a structure?s service years. RUSSTECH RCI has a minimum of 30% calcium nitrite by mass, weighs approximately 10.6 lbs./gallon, and is exactly the same chemical makeup as other 30% calcium nitrite corrosion-inhibiting admixtures.
USES:
RUSSTECH RCI is an effective corrosion inhibitor for all types of steel reinforced concrete. RUSSTECH RCI is recommended for use in post-tensioned, precast, and prestressed concrete applications. Also, it is recommended for use in parking garages, marine structures, bridge decks, and any other project that requires corrosion protection from de-icing salts or chloride exposure.
ADVANTAGES:
* Extends the service years of reinforced concrete
* Provides effective corrosion protection to the reinforcing steel in the concrete from the presence of chlorides (de-icing salts)
* Offsets the corrosive effects of concrete ingredients that have exceeded normal chloride limits (admixed chlorides)
* In cold weather, concrete setting times and strength development are accelerated without the incorporation and added cost of a non-chloride accelerator.
* Aids in prevention of concrete from freezing at higher dosages
* Calcium nitrite has a twenty two year history of testing and research on the successful effectiveness as a corrosion inhibitor in concrete
