PROBLEM

The Naval station in Crete was suffering from internal corrosion damage. The reinforcements in the concrete had corroded and caused spalls in the concrete. Sparakis needed to repair the damage and prevent more from occurring.

APPLICATION

Sparakis chose Cortec® Migratory Corrosion Inhibitor products to repair and protect. First, Sparakis removed the spalled concrete and then the cavity was sprayed thoroughly with MCI®-2020 corrosion inhibitor liquid. Next MCI®-2023 was applied as a bonding agent. After the MCI®-2023 was applied, MCI®-2038 Repair Mortar was used to fill the area. Finally, when the MCI®-2038 had set, a finishing spray of MCI®-2020 covered the repaired section and the surrounding area.

CONCLUSION

The combination of Cortec® MCI® products provided a complete system to repair and protect the naval station. Cortec’s variety of products prevented corrosion in every step of the repair.
