IMPREGNATED MATERIALS FOR PREVENTING CORROSION

Packspec cc has developed a unique range of speciality VCI impregnated materials, which are ideal for inhibiting
corrosion of packed products.

Available as a Polyethylene film (Sheeting or Bags) or Paper, these environment friendly materials can be used to protect components during assembly, storage and distribution.
They are used in the manufacturing, processing, mining, electrical, electronic, automotive and engineering industries, whenever corrosion protection is required.

Both Packspec's paper and polyethylene are impregnated with a blend of contact and volatile corrosion inhibitors (VCI). Through vaporization and contact of the VCI chemicals, the corrosive effects of moisture, salt and pollutants are inhibited.

Consider the following advantages of Packspec's VCI papers and polyethylene.

1. They eliminate costly, messy greasing and degreasing operations
2. They are impervious to moisture penetration. Our polyethylene's are
transparent, for easy inspection and identification of protected parts.
4. Polyethylene's are heat sealable on standard equipment.
5. The VCI action protects even the most intricate parts.
6. There is no strong chemical odour to irritate packaging personnel
7. VCI chemicals will not flake off or otherwise contaminate protected parts.

HOW PACKSPEC cc VCIs CAN CUT COSTS

•VCI vaporizes.
•VCI conditions enclosed atmosphere with a protective vapor.
•VCI vapor migrates to all recessed areas and cavities.
•Vapor condenses on all metal surfaces.
•VCI ions dissolve in moisture film (water electrolyte).
•Protective ions are attracted to metal surfaces.
•VCI ions form a thin, monomolecular protective film at the metal surface.
•VCI film barrier re-heals and selfteplenishes through further condensation of the vapour.
