Cortech Launched Eco-Corr Film for Prevention of Corrosion

Sep 13, 2023 | Industry News

The most recent TÜV Austria approved industrially compostable Eco-Corr Film is the result of Cortec’s long-standing interest in researching biodegradable technology. It is a type of commercially available biodegradable VCI (vapour corrosion inhibitor) packaging that does not endanger plant growth with ecotoxicity. Eco-Corr Film meets German TL-8135-002 and NACE TM0208-2018 standards for corrosion protection. These films can be used to protect a wide variety of metals, including carbon steel, aluminum, galvanized steel, stainless steel, copper, and brass during domestic and overseas shipments. After use, Eco-Corr Film can be disposed in an industrial composting environment. Metal parts packaged in Eco-Corr Film gets protection against salt, excessive humidity, condensation, moisture, and aggressive industrial atmospheres. In addition to serving as a physical barrier to the elements and inhibiting corrosion on metals in direct contact with the film, Eco-Corr Film also contains Vapor phase Corrosion Inhibitors that vaporise and then condense on all accessible metal surfaces within the enclosed package to prevent corrosion reaction between metal, oxygen, and an electrolyte.
