RustBan Eliminates Need for VCI Paper, Bags

Print Print this Article | Send to Colleague

Michelman, Cincinnati, Ohio, USA, has announced RustBan, a vapor corrosion inhibitor (VCI) that is applied directly to corrugated, solid fiber, and other forms of paperboard packaging used to store and ship ferrous and nonferrous metal products. It protects metal from corrosion, and can eliminate the time and expense required to place corrosible metal products in VCI-treated paper, bags, or wrapping. It is used in a range of industries and applications including automotive, heavy equipment, steel mills, consumer packaging, electronics, aerospace, and military.
 
RustBan is water based, nitrite-free, and repulpable, and can be applied with a blade or rod coater, either inline or offline. RustBan treated packaging is gluable with a wide variety of cold set and hot melt adhesives. Partitions, slip sheets, and other specialty paperboard products can be produced with RustBan applied to both sides.
 
More information is available online.
