Product Description

MCI®-2018 X is a 100% silane penetrating water repellent. It provides great protection for concrete against water ingress and other contaminants. MCI®-2018 X lines the pores of the concrete matrix with a hydrophobic layer, boosting the durability and service life of concrete structures. MCI®-2018 X can be conveniently applied on top of a penetrating, surfaceapplied corrosion inhibitor (SACI) for a full system of protection against moisture and corrosion.

MCI®-2018 X is also available as MCI®-2018 X V/O, a higher viscosity formulation ideal for easier application on vertical and overhead surfaces.

Packaging & Storage

Both MCI®-2018 X and MCI ®- 2 0 1 8 X V / O a r e available in 5 gallon (19 L) pails and 55 gallon (208 L) drums.

To ensure best product performance, store in original packaging, indoors, and out of direct sunlight at 40–100°F (4–38°C). Shelf life: 2 years

How it works

MCI®-2018 X and MCI®-2018 X V/O provide water repellency by chemically reacting with the cementitious substrate under proper application, decreasing the ingress of aggressive materials.

In previous applications, applying MCI®-2018 X and MCI®-2018 X V/O after a SACI have prolonged the protection period of the corrosion inhibitor. For data projections on specific applications, please contact Cortec® Technical Service.
