VCI Anti-Rust Film is a high-tech packaging solution combining polymer materials with VCI (Vapor Corrosion Inhibitor) technology. The PE resin and VCI masterbatch are co-extruded to form a film that protects metal surfaces. VCI molecules sublimate and form an invisible protective layer, blocking moisture and oxygen.
This film provides up to 2 years of rust protection and works with a wide range of metals, including steel, iron, copper, aluminum, and their alloys.
The film provides both vapor-phase and contact protection, covering complex geometries and hard-to-reach areas.
Metal items can be used immediately after unwrapping. There is no need for cleaning or degreasing, saving time and labor costs.
The film offers water and moisture resistance, making it suitable for harsh environments, such as maritime shipping.
The VCI film is non-toxic, safe for users, and recyclable. It meets international environmental regulations.
The clear material allows visual inspection of contents without opening the package.
The film seals easily with heat, allowing secure packaging. It can also be printed to display branding or handling instructions.
VCI Anti-Rust Film protects metal parts in multiple industries:
Applicable Metals:
Ferrous Metals: Steel, Alloy Steel, Cast Iron
Non-Ferrous Metals: Copper, Brass, Bronze, Aluminum
Surface-Treated Metals: Galvanized steel, Chromium, Cadmium, Nickel, Tin, and plated metals
Industry Applications:
Automotive: Engine parts, vehicle components
Machinery & Hardware: Bearings, valves, precision machinery parts, cutting tools
Electronics & Electricals: Circuit boards, micro-motors, instruments (use anti-static variants for electronics)
Heavy Equipment & Aerospace: Ship and aircraft components, large equipment packaging
Military: Military equipment packaging meeting strict standards
How does the film work?
VCI compounds vaporize at room temperature, filling the air space. They condense to form an invisible protective layer on all exposed metal surfaces, preventing corrosion.
Is the film safe to touch?
Yes, it is non-toxic and safe for skin contact. For best protection, wear clean gloves to prevent contamination from sweat or oils.
Can I use this film for all metals?
It works for most metals and alloys. For metals with high zinc, lead, magnesium, or certain non-ferrous metals, consult our technical team for guidance.
What is the shelf life?
12 months from manufacture if stored in sealed packaging in a cool, dry, dark place.
Recommended film thickness?
0.10 mm (100 microns) is standard. Thicker films are available for heavy-duty or long-term storage.
How should I package items for best protection?
Clean and dry metal items.
Wrap completely with the VCI side facing the metal.
Seal tightly using heat or tape to create a semi-enclosed environment.
Protect sharp edges with caps or additional layers to avoid punctures.
