Unique flexible corrosion inhibiting device constructed from biobased non-woven material

BioPad® is a unique flexible corrosion inhibiting device constructed from biobased non-woven material. BioPad® provides an eco-friendly sustainable packaging option for corrosion inhibition. Its high VpCI® concentration, in combination with thin design, results in material reduction by up to 94% in comparison to similar polyurethane foam emitting devices. BioPad® is easy to use. Simply placing the correct size BioPad® into your package will allow metal items to be protected. Parts protected with BioPad® are always ready for use; no degreasing or coating removal is required; just remove the item from the package and put to use.

Eco Wrap®, World’s First Certified Compostable Industrial Strength Stretch Film

Eco Wrap® is a specialty certified compostable wrapping film made with certified compostable res- in plus a tackifier additive. Eco Wrap® is designed to run on existing stretch film equipment by simply ad- justing the tension setting. Eco Wrap® users can ben- efit from material/waste reduction in the following ways. First, most applica- tions requiring three wraps of standard film can use two wraps of Eco Wrap® without sacrificing strength or protection. Second, Eco Wrap® is commercially cer- tified compostable* and may avoid tariffs, fines, and tip fees in areas where polyethylene is prohibited or restricted. Eco Wrap® is shelf and curb stable and will retain its integrity until disposed of properly. It can be used anywhere a stretch film is needed. Eco Wrap® is easily applied by adjusting (typically increasing) the tension on standard automatic “stretch wrapping” equipment.

FEATURES

• Certified industrially compostable by TÜV Austria (#TA8012106218)
• Meets EN 13432/ASTM D6400 standard for commercial composting
• Works on most existing automated machines
• Ideally suited for general machine stretch wrapping applications
• Extremely elastic

BENEFITS

• Uses less material without sacrificing strength
• Reduces conventional plastic waste
• Improves user’s environmental image

World’s First Certified, Compostable, Eco-Corr® Patented Films and Bags powered by Nano-VpC®

Eco-Corr Film® is the first biodegradable corrosion inhibiting film that contains Cortec’s proprietary VpCI® Technology and provides excellent contact, barrier, and vapor-phase corrosion protection for ferrous and non-ferrous metals. Eco-Corr Film® will disintegrate into carbon dioxide and water within 2-3 months in a commercial composting environment. The exact time for films to biodegrade is dependent upon the conditions and activity of the disposal environment (temperature, soil quality, activity of microorganisms). Eco-Corr Film® is shelf stable and will not break down prematurely until disposed of in a proper composting environment. Laboratory composability testing of Eco-Corr Film® using a household-style compost bin showed the film was disintegrated in 112 days. EcoCorr is complete replacement for non-degradable and inferior blend films. It contains biobased polymer resins and is excellent environmentally responsible alternative to conventional polyethylene films for shipping and storage applications. Metal parts that are packaged in Eco-Corr Film® receive continuous protection against salt, excessive humidity, condensation, moisture, aggressive industrial atmospheres, and dissimilar metal corrosion. The Vapor phase Corrosion Inhibitors vaporize and then condense on all metal surfaces in the enclosed package. VpCI® reaches every area of your part, protecting its exterior as well as hard to reach interior surfaces. The products provides complete corrosion protection during storage as well as during domestic and overseas shipments.

Eco-Corr Film® is certified industrially compostable by TÜV Austria (#TA8012206603) and meets following standards:

• ASTM D6400
• NACE TM0208-2018 standard for corrosion protection
• German TL-8135-002 standards for corrosion protection

EcoShield® VpCI®-144 Barrier Paper, Patented with 100% Recyclable Content (USDA Certified Biobased)

EcoShield® VpCI®-144 is the premium recyclable and repulpable moisture barrier corrosion inhibiting paper in the industry. It is coated with a water-based barrier coating and shows excellent oil and grease resistance. It also contains 69% USDA certified biobased content and is a qualified product under the mandatory federal purchasing initiative of the USDA BioPreferred® Program.* Historically, polyethylene and wax coatings have been used to seal porous paper to provide a moisture barrier and/or moisture-vapor barrier. When coated this way, the resulting paper product is an environmental problem and cannot be recycled through normal channels. EcoShield® VpCI®-144 paper provides a competitive environmentally friendly alternative to polyethylene and wax paper, with comparable water vapor barrier properties. It is fully recyclable/repulpable into other types of paper products such as boxes, cardboard, and other corrugated materials.

FEATURES

• Combines corrosion protection, moisture barrier properties, oil and grease resistivity
• Fully repulpable according to Fibre Box Association Voluntary Standard
• Contains no nitrites, phosphates, silicones, chromates, other heavy metals, or toxic products
• One product protects against corrosion of ferrous and non-ferrous metals
• Passes TAPPI T 240 om-12 Repulpability Testing (See Table 1)
• Commercially equivalent to military specifications MIL-P-3420E
• Meets MIL-STD 3010C (modified)**
• Conforms to NACE Standards TM0208-2008 and RP0487-2000
• Packaged parts do not need to be cleaned prior to coating or other surface finishing applications
• UNI 11743:2019 and the System of Evaluation Aticelca 501:2019

EcoShield® VpCI®-144 paper can be used to protect products for storage and shipment in a wide variety of ways: end closures for shipping tubes, insert strips for recessed areas in large packages, and sheet liners or separators between products.

EcoSonic ® VpCI ® - 125 HP Permanent ESD - high-performance anti-static, corrosion inhibiting film and bags

EcoSonic ® VpCI ® - 125 HP Permanent ESD Films and Bags are high-performance anti-static, corrosion inhibiting film and bags for use in the
protection of static sensitive multi-metal items such as electronics. They contain permanent anti-static properties to immediately reduce or
eliminate static buildup as long as the films or bags are in use, independent of the presence of humidity. They also form a molecular corrosion inhibiting layer on metal substrates and do not interfere with the physical or chemical properties of electronic components. The film and bags replace conventional rust preventatives such as oils and desiccants and allow your product to be used immediately without cleaning or degreasing. EcoSonic® VpCI®- 125 HP Permanent ESD Films and Bags are safe to use and do not contain any harmful Prop 65 ingredients.
