Corrosion Prevention for Long Term Storage
VpCI solutions for corrosion protection are commonly considered to be temporary solutions, offering short-term protection (up to 2 years). It simple solutions such as a resealable bag this is true and often more than adequate. However some situations, such as mothballing power stations, large pieces of machinery, military vehicles for long periods of time, say up to 10years require more innovative and radical approaches.
CORTEC combines its VpCI technology with barrier laminates, coatings and concentrates to extend the life of its storage solutions to the point where periods in excess of 10 years corrosion free storage are possible. Achieving this prolonged period of corrosion free storage requires special attention to preparation and cleaning prior to storage.
A few of the products that can be used in such situations are listed below. If you would like more information please contact HITEK
