DCI® S

Corrosion Inhibiting Admixture

Description

DCI® S  corrosion inhibitor is a liquid admixture meeting the requirements of ASTM C1582, which is added to concrete during the batching process. It chemically inhibits the corrosive action of chlorides on reinforcing steel and prestressed strands in concrete. DCI® S has been formulated to provide set time characteristics similar to untreated concrete at 72°F (22°C). 

One gallon of DCI® S weighs approximately 10.7 lbs (one liter of DCI® weighs approximately 1.28 kg ± 0.01 kg). DCI® S contains a minimum of 30% calcium nitrite.

Benefits

  • Chemically inhibits the corrosive action of chlorides on reinforcing steel and prestressed strands in concrete
  • Extends the service life of structures in a de-icing salt and marine environment
  • Cost effective solution to the control of reinforcing steel chloride-induced corrosion
  • Easy to use neutral set liquid admixture

Packaging

  • 55 gallon drum
  • 275 gallon tote
