Independent Tests by Geomaterials Research Services Ltd
March, 1998--Basildon, Essex, UK
Makers Industrial Ltd and QED jointly commissioned an
independent test to verify whether it is possible for a corrosion
inhibitor to migrate through concrete.
Samples of Margel VPI 580 where submitted for testing to Geomaterials
The Conclusion Summarised by Dr French BSc,PhD,FGS of Geomaterials was;
"It is clear that Margel does travel through a concrete pore structure, or more precisely, each element of it does."
"Each
active ingredient contains a known corrosion inhibitor with an industry
track record of inhibiting corrosion, we can verify that this readily
travels through dense structural concrete"
