To effectively protect metal from rust in enclosed spaces, it is advantageous to use a VCI emitter, a specially designed plastic can fitted with a Tyvek® membrane, through which corrosion inhibitors are released in vapour phase.
VCI corrosion inhibitors fill the entire surrounding space - whether it's a box, container or cabinet, and are designed to form a protective barrier that effectively prevents rust. The VCI shield completely evaporates from the metal surface when the item is removed, eliminating the need for cleaning. The emitter thus provides a practical and clean solution for securing the integrity and function of metal components during storage or transport in closed environments.
In the film below you can see how an emitter with VCI works.
Emitters provide many benefits:
✓ Effective protection: VCI emitters provide long-lasting and reliable corrosion protection, even in humid or aggressive environments.
✓ Easy to use: They are easy to place in any enclosed space and require no complicated application.
✓ No residues: the VCI molecules evaporate completely when the metal is removed, meaning no cleaning is needed.
✓ Cost-effective: By preventing rust, VCI emitters reduce the need for costly repairs or replacement of corroded parts.
✓ Environmentally friendly: Many VCI products today are formulated to be safe for both people and the environment.
