Volatile Corrosion Inhibitor (VCI) Powder protects metal surfaces from corrosion. Upon application or release near a metal surface, this inhibitor creates a protective coating that actively prevents corrosion.
Effective Protection of Metal Surfaces
This anti-corrosion solution emits VCI as vapour or gas into the surrounding environment, dispersing and adoring to the metal surface. The protective layer impedes corrosion by limiting the interaction between metal surfaces and environmentally corrosive elements such as moisture and oxygen.
They are beneficial for equipment undergoing hydrostatic testing prior to shipping and storage. In mothballing scenarios, VCI powders maintain machinery in operational condition to facilitate a rapid restart of production when required.
Protecting Inner Cavities and Recesses
For ease of use, VCI powders can be enclosed in pouch emitters to protect exposed metals within a confined space. Each pouch can protect up to 15 cubic feet of metal space without the need for fogging or spraying.
The VCI powder is simple to apply – dust, sprinkle, or fog the powder into an enclosed space using a low-pressure air hose or by dissolving in water for application.
Our range of VCI powders is environmentally friendly and safe – devoid of Phosphates, Heavy Metals, and Nitrates. The application of VCI powders is diverse, and it can be used for mothballing, lay-up preservation, and protecting the inner cavities and recesses of equipment.
