MAXRITE

Description:

MAXRITE 700 is a single component, cement-based, microsilica and polymer-modified, fiber- reinforced restoration mortar with corrosion inhibitors. It is specially designed for high performance structural concrete repair exposed to an aggressive environment and provides additional protection of the steel reinforcements. Its long open time and thixotropy make the repair of new and old concrete in a simple, without the need to use form work, apply manually or by mechanical means.

Application fields:
• Maintenance of areas damaged by aggressive environment, acid rain, atmospheric pollution, etc

• Structural concrete repair affected by corrosion of reinforcement in marine environment, bridges, harbours, dams, etc

• Repair of concrete structures with carbonation damage

• Repair of damaged concrete by deicing-salts, freeze/thaw cycles, mechanical impacts, etc

• Concrete repair affected by repeated loads

• Repair of pre-fabricated concrete elements

Advantages:

• Corrosion inhibitors prevent corrosion against chlorides and aggressive corroding agents, extending the service life of the structure considerably

• Its longer setting time allows the quick completion of the repair of large surfaces

• Good chemical resistance in an aggressive environment due to its microsilica content

• Waterproof. Withstands freeze/thaw cycles

• Offers high resistance to carbonation penetration

• High adhesion to concrete and reinforcement. Does not require special primers. Loads are transmitted onto the repaired structure

• High impact and mechanical strength. Long lasting repairs

• Good thixotropy. Application in successive layers without slump or the need to use form work. Allows high thickness per layer

• Easy workability and application. It can also be sprayed by wet method

• Single component mortar. Only requires water for mixing, odourless, making it suitable for poor ventilated areas
• Do not use curing compounds on the repair.
• Do not exceed the thickness per layer in application.
• Do not exceed the amount of mixing water recommended.

The setting time is measured at 20 ºC, higher temperatures reduce setting time and lower temperatures delay setting time. For any other application not specified in this technical bulletin consult our Technical

Packaging:
MAXRITE 700 is supplied in 25 kg. bags and drums.

Storage:
Nine months in bags and twelve months in drums and cans, in their original unopened packaging, in a dry and covered place, protected from frost and humidity with temperature above 5 ºC.

Safety and health:
MAXRITE 700 is non-toxic, but is an abrasive compound by its composition. Avoid eye and skin contact. Rubber gloves and safety goggles must be used during the application. In case of skin contact, wash affected areas with soap and water. In case of eye contact, rinse with clean water but do not rub. If irritation continues, seek medical attention. Safety Data Sheet of MAXRITE 700 is available by request. Disposal of the product and its empty packaging must be done according to national regulations by the final user.
