Volatile corrosion inhibiting (VCI) products made from paper are gaining popularity largely on account of the effectiveness and recyclability of such products. This paper focuses on environmentally friendly VCI coated paper that is made from VCI chemicals time-release binder, and recycled paper. The product itself is recyclable. In addition to the use of recycled paper the paper is made in neutral pH. This feature further enhances the VCI effectiveness. The finished product has demonstrated corrosion inhibiting properties for both ferrous and non-ferrous metals. The unique construction of the VCI coating confines the chemicals to the metal part providing a durable substrate suitable for most applications. The method of constructions unique and will be described in this paper.
