What is Vapour phase inhibitors?
VpCI stands for “Vapor phase Corrosion Inhibitors” a breakthrough technology where the corrosion inhibitor substance is transported to metal surfaces through a vapor phase instead of requiring actual contact with metal surfaces (as is typical with traditional VCIs).
What is VCI oil?
Product Description. VCI-F Oil is a vapor phase corrosion inhibitor and flushing fluid, which should be used to protect internal tanks from corrosion, flush tanks to disperse debris and offer protection for the external surfaces of parts.
What VpCI 309?
VpCI®-309 is a Vapor phase Corrosion Inhibitor powder for cor- rosion protection of ferrous metals in recessed areas, interior cavities, and voids. VpCI®-309 provides an extremely efficient dry method to protect metals within an enclosed space.
What is VCI made of?
Zerust® ICT®520-SRA VCI Plastic Scrim ICT®520-SRA VCI is a durable polyethylene fabric film that contains woven strands for strength and tear resistance that prevents corrosion and damage in shipping and storage.
Is Dicyclohexylammonium nitrite a Vapour phase inhibitor?
Dicyclohexylammonium Nitrite, A Volatile Inhibitor for Corrosion Preventive Packaging.
How do VCIs work?
VCI technology works to create a protective environment within each package or enclosure where it is applied. VCIs inside liquids, powders, or packaging materials travel through the air to form an invisible protective shield on metal surfaces in the enclosed space. This VCI shield does not alter metal properties.
What is VCI paper?
VCI paper (we call it ARMOR WRAP® VCI paper) is a clean, dry packaging material designed for the protection of ferrous and non-ferrous metals. When metal parts are wrapped or enclosed in VCI paper, VCIs activate and fill up the vapor space inside the packaging.
How long does VCI paper last?
2 year
How Long Does VCI Paper Last? Our rolls of Cortec VpCI paper are packaged in sealed corrugated boxes. When not in use, the paper should be stored inside the box which may be taped or otherwise kept closed. This is sufficient to protect the VpCI material and maintain the paper throughout its 2 year shelf life.
Is VCI toxic?
It’s not toxic like older, nitrite- and amine-based VCIs. With BioCor, you can protect both your product and your people. It’s available in several different formats, including bubble film, bags, and stretch wrap.
What is a application of VCI?
VCI technology works to create a protective environment within each package or enclosure where it is applied. VCIs inside liquids, powders, or packaging materials travel through the air to form an invisible protective shield on metal surfaces in the enclosed space.
Are corrosion inhibitors safe?
The use of inhibitors is one of the best options of protecting metals against corrosion. Several inhibitors in use are either synthesized from cheap raw material or chosen from compounds having heteroatoms in their aromatic or long-chain carbon system. However, most of these inhibitors are toxic to the environment.
Is Volatile Corrosion Inhibitor safe?
High doses, or 100% pure samples of VCI compounds in raw form, when inhaled, ingested, or contacted by humans, can be toxic if over exposure takes place for a prolonged period. However, in packaging applications, the products are built-in as coatings or compounds. Therefore, the level of concentration is much lower.
