Sika® FerroGard®-901 (IN)

Corrosion inhibiting concrete admixture

Sika® FerroGard®-901 (IN) is a Bipolar corrosion inhibiting liquid concrete admixture based on Sika® FerroGard® Technology for use in reinforced concrete and mortar. It acts as a corrosion inhibitor for the steel reinforcement. By using Sika® FerroGard®-901 (IN), the life expectancy and durability will be substantially increased.

By using Sika® FerroGard®-901 (IN) both the anodic and cathodic reactions of the electrochemical corrosion process are reduced. The product forms a film on the steel surface which delays the onset of corrosion and also reduces the rate of corrosion. Sika® FerroGard®-901 (IN) is a combination of organic corrosion inhibitors. The following advantages can be achieved using Sika® FerroGard®-901 (IN):
  • Corrosion protection for embedded reinforcing steel, especially from chloride attack
  • Protection from the destructive influences of reinforcement corrosion
  • No negative influences on the properties of both the fresh and the hardened concrete
Sika® FerroGard®-901 (IN) is neutral to hydrogen embrittlement of prestressed steel i.e. it neither enhances nor limits hydrogen embrittlement of prestressing steel.
