Metal Protection is achieved by neutralizing the poles of currents on metal surfaces to inhibit corrosion. This is how the VCI Brasil packaging works, employing a preservation mechanism.
When purchasing anticorrosive packaging from VCI Brasil for a protective solution for metal protection, certain precautions must be taken. The inhibitor only functions effectively when the environment is completely sealed, maintaining its atmosphere in balance.
CANCELING CURRENT POLARIZATION FOR METAL PROTECTION WITH VCI
When wrapping a desired metal part, equipment, or piece using paper, plastic, or raffia treated with the volatile corrosion inhibitor from VCI Brasil, a process takes place within the package. The inhibitor disperses throughout the medium and the entire metal surface. This is followed by the solidification and impregnation of the VCI on the metallic surface, forming a barrier that neutralizes current polarization for metal protection.
Beyond the standard composition of anticorrosive packaging, with an effective VCI charge like that of VCI Brasil, experience shows that technical consulting can recommend additional reinforcement for metal protection. This is particularly valuable in scenarios where the load faces higher risks of exposure to moisture and air.
Special care should be given to cargo intended for export or stored in warehouses near marine environments. These conditions expose the cargo to adverse factors, such as frequent handling, humidity, climate and pressure variations, and sea salt, which accelerates oxidation.
VCI Brasil’s Raffia Paper, one of the most durable and active pioneering packages, handles these challenges with excellent results. It not only concentrates the inhibitor for metal protection more effectively due to the paper’s properties but also provides the necessary sealing and physical barrier for tough conditions.
ENHANCED CORROSION PROTECTION: MARITIME/LOGISTICS/EXPORT CONDITIONS
For enhanced corrosion protection under adverse conditions, we highlight VCI Brasil’s Cellulose Linter VCI. Made from cotton cellulose, it allows for substantial impregnation of the corrosion inhibitor, ensuring higher VCI emission per cubic meter.
Another complementary solution for metal protection, recommended by our experts, is our innovative atmosphere modifier, MVDispenser. Designed for use in closed compartments, containers, crates, vans, etc., it stabilizes the environment, eliminating pressure and temperature variations, with automatic activation.
