Hycrete Endure CP
Hycrete Endure CP is a dual-action corrosion inhibitor, protecting steel reinforcement in two ways. Hycrete Endure CP:
- Reduces the permeability of concrete, up to seven times better than control concrete as measured under the BSI 1881-122 test
- Forms a protective layer on the surface of rebar
With one application Hycrete Endure CP provides an effective and robust barrier against water and chloride ingress that does not lose performance over time and never requires reapplication. It increases concrete durability and sustainability. Concrete treated with Hycrete Endure CP outperforms High Performance Concrete mixes (HPC) that include silica fume, fly ash, slag and calcium nitrite corrosion inhibitors.
Benefits:
Increased structural durability
- Reduce absorptivity of concrete
- Protect rebar with passivating layer
- Minimize water and chloride damage, even in cracked concrete
- Does not degrade, wash out or lose performance over time
Increase life cycle of structures
- Structures last longer and have a longer life cycle, making construction more sustainable, and easier and cheaper to maintain
