MasterShield CI 8600PEL

MasterShield CI 8600PEL– A New Era in Concrete Protection, designed to protect steel-reinforced concrete structures with enhanced durability and corrosion resistance

How does MasterShield CI 8600PEL work?

MasterShield CI 8600PEL is an advanced organofunctional silane-based corrosion protection system that works at the molecular level to safeguard steel-reinforced concrete. Its unique formulation ensures long-lasting protection against waterborne contaminants and chloride-induced corrosion, offering exceptional durability.

MasterShield CI 8600PEL is ideal for the protection of:

• Bridge decks, piers, columns, and beams

• Multi-storey car parks, building facades, and balconies

• Marine jetties and structures

What Are the Unique Features of MasterShield CI 8600PEL?

• Effective Contaminant Barrier: Prevents the ingress of waterborne contaminants, significantly reducing chloride and carbonation-induced corrosion.

• Restores the Passive Layer: Inhibits corrosion by reinstating the protective passive layer on the steel reinforcement, even when chlorides are already present.

• Molecular-Level Protection: Inhibits both macrocell (rebar-to-rebar) and microcell (on the same rebar) corrosion.
  Long-Term Proven Performance: Trusted globally with references demonstrating over 15 years of successful service.
  Performs in Humid Conditions: Equally effective in environments with high humidity.

• Chemical Bonding: Bonds securely to steel, cement paste, and other siliceous materials, ensuring long-lasting protection that won’t wash out during wet/dry cycles.

• Aesthetic Preservation: Does not alter or discolour concrete, making it suitable for architectural surfaces.

• Breathable: Maintains vapor permeability, allowing moisture to escape while preventing liquid water ingress.

What Are the Benefits of MasterShield CI 8600PEL?

• Extended Service Life: Provides long-lasting corrosion protection, ensuring structural integrity.

• Strong Chemical Bond: Prevents leaching, even in harsh environmental conditions.

• Lower Maintenance Costs: Reduces the need for frequent repairs.

• Minimal Maintenance Effort: Ongoing maintenance requirements are minimal.

• Proven Performance: Tested and validated by several independent external institutions.

• Preserves Appearance: Ensures no visual changes to concrete surfaces.

• Compatibility with Coatings: Does not impact the adhesion of subsequent coatings.
