51316-7283-Improved Packaging Film Incorporating Vapor Phase Corrosion Inhibitors and High Recycle Content

Plastic packaging films can be readily impregnated with Vapor Phase Corrosion Inhibitors (VCIs) to provide corrosion protection, in addition to the basic physical barrier afforded by the plastic. VCI-containing plastic films are recyclable. This paper will discuss the benefits of using in-house recycling lines. Improved environmental profile. Better quality. Cost saving.

Vapor Phase Corrosion Inhibitors (VCIs) are used for safe and cost-effective protection of a wide range of metal articles. One large market includes packaging materials for storage and transportation of metal parts. Plastic packaging films can be readily impregnated with VCIs to provide corrosion protection, in addition to the basic physical barrier (against water, dirt, vapors) afforded by the plastic. Generally, VCI containing plastic films are recyclable. Likewise, they can be made from recycled plastics. However, when manufacturing with commercially available recycle streams, use of the recycled plastic is often limited by contamination and extent of polymer degradation.

This paper will discuss the benefits of using in-house recycling lines; including improved environmental profile, better quality, and cost saving. The results are supported by data and experience with in-house recycling lines at two production facilities.
