Corrosion inhibiting packaging in the form of VCI film or VCI paper has revolutionized the way that metals can be stored or shipped in rust-free condition. Instead of applying a greasy rust preventative for the end user to clean off, manufacturers can now package metal components in a Cortec® VpCI®-126 Bag or wrap them in CorShield® VpCI®-146 Paper for protection during sensitive stages of the product life cycle.
Vapor phase Corrosion Inhibitors in the packaging material diffuse throughout the package and form a protective molecular layer on metal surfaces inside. Often, all that remains for the end user to do is to simply unwrap the component and install it upon arrival, no special rust preventative removal required. Each packaging type has its own advantages and its own particular applications to which it is best suited. In the case of VCI paper, Cortec® Corporation has identified three industries in particular that stand out as good matches for this recyclable packaging material for metals.
Corrosion Inhibiting Packaging for Bearings
Corrosion Protection for Firearms and Munitions
VCI Paper for the Auto Industry
