Corrosion Intercept®
Optimal corrosion & tarnish protection for short and long term.
CI works by reacting with and permanently neutralizing corrosive gases, both inside and outside the containment, and will last 3-15 Years depending on material style, gauge, and the aggresiveness of the environment, though temperature will not affect its ability. CI also acts as both a fungus and a bacteria inhibitor. All this and yet Corrosion Intercept® does not use volatile chemicals and does not leave deposits on products. In fact as #4 plastic, CI is fully recyclable and even breaks down to polymer dust in a landfill which, along with its reusability, means its carbon footprint is low.
CI can protect:
- Silver
- Bronze
- Tin
- Brass
- Magnesium
- Ferrous Metals (Iron and Steel)
- Galvanic Couples (when in intimate contact)
- Organics
- Other non-metals
Corrosion Intercept® is perfect for light industrial application, museum, archival, and retail applications. CI is nonvolatile, clean and safe protection.
Corrosion Intercept® is an opaque polyethylene or polystyrene packaging material or a coating substrate. Corrosion Intercept® changes color as its corrosion protection abilities wane, i.e. the color change is a saturation indicator. It can easily be used to protect products when in-process.
Available as bags, shrouds, sheets, rolls, trays and inserts. Various stock bags and rolls are readily available in 3 mil thickness. Custom gauges and sizes are also available on request.
