Vapor Phase Corrosion Inhibitors (VpCI)
Corrosion is always an issue to consider whenever you are storing or transporting metal products or parts. Many common methods to prevent corrosion such as oils, paints or sprays tend to be costly, messy, hazardous, or just not practical for your needs. Too often they are ineffective.
Cortec’s VpCI® products protect metals at the molecular level with a chemically adsorbed layer that provides multimetal corrosion protection. Because the molecules are emitted as vapor, all surfaces, crevices, cavities, and other inaccessible void areas are completely coated and protected. The VpCI® barrier is self-replenishing, even for packaging that’s repeatedly opened, and typically protects for up to 24 months.
The industry proven result is exceptional product protection without the labor-intensive application and clean-up required with conventional oil coatings or other inhibiting products – even for previously corroded, painted, or coated surfaces. Cortec® VpCIs are environmentally safe, not based on nitrites, and the safety net your products and systems deserve.
