Basic metals such as steel, brass, copper, aluminum, and cast iron are very prone to corrosion induced by direct water and oxygen. Here at SPS, we have developed a line of ready to use corrosion protection products that will protect your everyday items: Grills, bicycles, golf clubs, fishing equipment, power generators, skateboards, etc.
SPS packaging preservation products are ideal for items used irregularly or put in storage. Our packaging design is based on Cortec® VpCI® technology (http://www.cortecvci.com/Products/products.php?showonly=Package).
What is a Vapor Phase Corrosion Inhibitor (VpCI)?
-
A carboxylate amine salt created by manufacturing that’s safe to the environment, animals, and people
-
The salt is chemically attracted to the surface of the metal and aligns itself on the surface of the metal
-
The VpCI repels water and oxygen that would fuel the development of rust
-
This protection will last for years and the VpCI will not have any effect on any other components
VpCI Benefits?
VpCI’s offer several key benefits from more traditional corrosion inhibiting packaging:
-
Cleaning of parts is not required-but clean surfaces attract more molecules
-
Rust preventative oils, that must eventually be removed, are not needed
-
No residual surface contamination from molecules
-
Air-tight packaging is not required - simply keep the package closed when not in use
-
There is no low humidity storage requirement
-
No desiccants (moisture absorbents that traditionally need to be present and periodically replaced) needed
-
Any size of enclosure may be manufactured and protected by adding VpCI emitters
-
Environmentally Safe for everyone and everything and developed on "Green Technologies"
