Re-MCI
Product Description
RE-MCI is fibrous composites carbon fiber reinforced polymer bar and
the surface bonded garnet for concrete reinforcement is that steel
corrodes in concrete subjected to harsh environments. Resulting in
loss of strength and structural integrity. Motorway concrete structures
are particularly prone to this corrosion, as they are exposed to the
outdoor environment and deicing salts in colder climates. It is essential
that all tensile reinforcing elements, including RE-MCI bars to be
used in concrete structures, retain sufficient strength capabilities
during the expected life of the concrete structure.
Application
- Weight sensitive concrete buildings, bridges, elevated bridges,
chimney stack, tower
- Inner-layer repairing-reinforcement of motorway tunnel, sewers
tunnel.
- Reinforced concrete exposed to deicing salts: parking lot, bridge
decks, roads, slabs
- Structures built in or lose to seawater: harbor structures, buildings,
lighthouse and others
- Chemical processing industries of all types major sources of corrosion
for steel
reinforcement; Wastewater treatment plants, petrochemical plants,
liquid gas plants,
pipelines and tanks for fossil fuel, nuclear power plants and nuclear
dump facilities, pulp
and paper factory and others.
- Requiring for fire resistant buildings
- High strength to weight ratio ; provides good reinforcement in
weight sensitive applications.
- Non corrosive ; will not corrode under exposure to a wide variety
of corrosive elements including chloride ions.
- Non conductive ; provide excellent electrical and thermal insulation.
- Excellent fatigue resistance ; performs very well in cyclic loading
situations.
- Good impact resistance ; resists sudden and severe point loading.
- Dimensionally stable under thermal loading ; reduced expansion
and shrinkage in concrete subjected to temperature variation.
- Lightweight ; easily transported and assembled in the field without
need for expensive heavy lifting equipment.

Directions
- Chipping of the concrete decayed part
- Rod installation and anchoring
- Plastering and finish work with Re-Mortars
- Concrete reinforcement construction with RE-MCI, of the concrete
surface must be good chipping and smoothing off repair of open void
- Plastering works with Re-Mortars, do not apply if the surface
temperature is below 5°C and above 35°C or above 85% relative humidity.
.
- Do not store Bars directly on ground.
- Should be stored in a dry, dark place and free dirt and mud and
chemical substances.
