Protection Against Microbial Induced Corrosion and Chemical Attack - Provision of Waterproofing
Xypex Bio-San C500 is a uniquely designed admixture for integral, long-term protection of concrete in sewage conditions with levels of H2 S that cause microbial induced corrosion. Bio-San C500 combines potent antimicrobial protection along with the unique crystalline technology of the Xypex C-Series. Bio-San C500 contains bio-active mineral solids that become permanently fixed within the cement matrix impairing bio-film formation thus inhibiting the growth of acid causing sewer bacteria such as Thiobacillus due to a buildup of H2 S. The unique Xypex Crystalline Technology creates a permanent structure throughout the pores and capillary tracts providing waterproofing and enhanced chemical protection including acid and sulphate resistance. Bio-San C500 inhibits microbial induced corrosion (MIC), stops infiltration/exfiltration of water, and provides acid and sulphate resistance, significantly extending the service life of concrete sewage collection systems and waste water infrastructure.
