RIO-SIL PLUS: WATER-BASED, POTASSIUM-SILICATE SOLUTION

Chemically reactive, water-based solution of potassium-silicate with added siliconate. It chemically reacts within the concrete matrix of form additional calcium-silicate-hydrate (C-S-H), filling pores and capillaries to create a dense, hardened surface. The siliconate component responds to polishing or wear by developing a satin sheen, resists black tire marks and adds hydrophobic characteristics.

  •   Increases surface density and durability

  •   Reduces surface absorption of liquids

  •   Allows moisture vapor transmission

  •   Resists black tire marks

  •   V.O.C. compliant, water based

  •   Neutralizes surface alkali to minimize efflorescence

  •   Will not peel, scratch or delaminate

  •   Develops satin sheen

  •   Naturally slip resistant

  •   Dries quickly for minimal downtime

  •   Normal life expectancy of twenty years

  •   Minimizes maintenance costs and labor

RIO-SIL PLUS Li: CHEMICALLY REACTIVE LITHIUM SILICATE

Changes the chemical composition of surfaces filling the pores and capillaries of the concrete matrix with a hard dense gel. RIOSIL PLUS Li has lower viscosity than other siliceous hardeners, allowing it to penetrate deeper into concrete. RIOSIL PLUS Li does not require scrubbing to facilitate penetration this reduces labor costs. Unlike sodium or potassium silicates, RIOSIL PLUS Li is easily removed, it does not leave unsightly white salt deposits.

  •   Increase surface density and durability

  •   Lower viscosity for deeper penetration

  •   Reduces labor costs

  •   Any residue can be easily swept or rinsed from the surface

  •   Reduces surface absorption of liquids

  •   Allows moisture vapor transmission

  •   Resists black tire marks

  •   Will not peel, scratch, or delaminate

  •   Develops satin sheen with wear

  •   Naturally slip resistant

  •   Dries quickly for minimal downtime

  •   Normal life expectancy of twenty years

  •   Minimizes maintenance costs and labor

RIO-GEL: THIXOTROPIC EPOXY PATCHER

RIO-GEL is a highly thixotropic, 100% solids epoxy gel ideal for quickly patching “bug holes”, cracks, divots and other minor deformities in concrete slabs. Used by itself for periodic concrete maintenance, or under other RIO Systems as part of the slab preparation process,  RIO-GEL exhibits superior compressive strength and wear properties with no shrinkage.

RIO-FILL: POLYUREA FILLER

A 100% solids, two-component, UV resistant, semi-rigid,
rapid-curing, polyurea for filling control and construction joints in
heavy duty industrial concrete floors.

RIO-FILL allows for joints to be shaved quickly for fast turnaround.
RIO-FILL has been designed for use in compliance with ACI 302,
section 4.10 recommendations for joint fillers used in saw cut/control
joints with a Shore A Durometer of 85. RIO-FILL can also be used for
the repair of damaged or spalled joint nosing and cracks.

USES

  • Industrial & Commercial Floors

  • Control & Construction Joints

  • Crack & Joint repair

FEATURES AND BENEFITS 

  • Easy 1 to 1 ratio, pourable/pumpable consistency

  • UV Resistant, Colorfast

  • High elongation (200%) to resist tearing due to excessive movement

  • Semi-rigid flexibility that does not weld slabs together or become brittle with age

  • Optimum hardness (Shore A = 85) to transfer wheel loads while allowing moderate movement

  • Can be applied and cures down to –200 F

  • Quicker turnaround/less downtime than epoxy joint fillers
