How VCI Stretch Wrap Works to Protect Your Products from Corrosion ?

VCI (Volatile Corrosion Inhibitor) stretch wrap or films are a type of packaging material that is used to protect metal parts and equipment from rust and corrosion during storage and transportation. These films contain special additives that release vapors to form a protective layer on the metal surface, preventing rust and corrosion from forming. The stretch wrap or films are easy to apply and remove, and are an effective solution for protecting metal parts from rust and corrosion in a variety of industrial and commercial applications.

 

The VCI stretch wrap works by emitting a vapour that contains corrosion inhibitors. The vapour is attracted to the metal surface, where it forms a protective layer. The protective layer acts as a barrier, preventing moisture and air from coming into contact with the metal surface. Moisture and air are the primary causes of rust and corrosion, so by preventing them from coming into contact with the metal surface, the VCI stretch wrap effectively prevents rust and corrosion.

 

The VCI stretch wrap is designed to be used in direct contact with the metal surface. This ensures that the vapours and additives are released in close proximity to the metal, providing the maximum level of protection. The wrap should be wrapped tightly around the metal product, ensuring that no air or moisture can come into contact with the metal surface.

Application of VCI Stretch Films :

The application of VCI stretch films is straightforward and easy. First, the metal part or equipment is cleaned and dried thoroughly. Then, the VCI stretch film is wrapped around the metal part, ensuring that it covers the entire surface area. The film is stretched tightly to ensure that it adheres closely to the metal surface, and any excess film is trimmed off.

 

VCI stretch films are available in a range of sizes and thicknesses, making them suitable for a wide variety of metal parts and equipment. They can be used to protect everything from small components to large machinery.

 

One of the main advantages of VCI stretch films is their versatility. They can be used in a wide range of applications, including automotive, electronics, aerospace, and marine industries. They are also commonly used in the packaging and shipping of metal parts and equipment.

 

Another advantage of VCI stretch films is their ease of use. Unlike traditional methods of rust prevention, such as oiling or greasing, VCI stretch films are clean and easy to apply. They also do not leave any residue on the metal surface, which can save time and effort when cleaning and preparing the metal part for use.

Usage of VCI Stretch Films in industry :

Automotive Industry : Automotive parts such as engines, transmissions, and brakes are susceptible to rust and corrosion if not properly protected. VCI stretch films provide a reliable and cost-effective solution to prevent rust and corrosion from forming on these critical components during storage and transportation.

 

Electronics Industry : Electronics components such as circuit boards and other metal parts can also be affected by rust and corrosion, which can damage the functionality of the electronics. VCI stretch films are a great solution for protecting these components during storage and transportation, ensuring that they remain in excellent condition until they are ready to be used.

 

Aerospace Industry : The complex machinery and metal parts used in aircraft require extensive protection to ensure they remain in perfect working condition. VCI stretch films are a reliable and cost-effective way to protect these critical components from rust and corrosion during storage and transportation.

 

Marine and Offshore Industries : Saltwater and other harsh environmental conditions can cause metal components and machinery to rust and corrode quickly. VCI stretch films provide a reliable and effective solution for preventing rust and corrosion from forming on these components, ensuring that they remain in top working condition even in the harshest environments.
