Characteristics
BRANOstretch M 5. is a bluish, transparent stretch film with active VCI corrosion protection that is especially suited for packaging steel coils. BRANOstretch M 5. is a waterproof polyethylene (LLDPE) film.
The film continually releases tiny traces of active substances into atmosphere,
even when no direct contact has been made to the metal surface.
Scope of protection
Steel and iron ist protected against corrosion
For cast iron, galvanized steel, nickel, aluminium, chrome, zinc, copper and its alloys we recommend a compatibility test in practice or in our laboratory first.
Protection duration: Up to 12 months depending on the climatic conditions and how tightly sealed (leak-proof) the packaging is. The duration of protection can
be adjusted once details of the application circumstances are known.
Application
In order to get the best out of VCI BRANOstretch M 5. films, the finished packaging should create a closed space. Steps should be taken to prevent water from penetrating the packaging and reaching the packaged goods.
Please also bear in mind the other basic rules for secure VCI protection: The surfaces to be protected must be dry and free from corrosion-promoting residues such finger sweat (please wear gloves), aggressive detergent-based substances and others. Acids and strong alkaline can also affect the corrosion
protection system. If there's doubt, we recommend carrying out a compatibility test.
The protected materials should be kept away from direct contact with wood or acidic materials. It is also important to make sure that relative atmospheric
humidity is kept low and that there is no atmospheric contamination (make sure that there is no wood in the packaging).
BRANOpac VCI products are to be used exclusively for the stipulated applications (packaging / preservation of metal parts susceptible to damage). There is no guarantee against / responsibility assumed for potential damage resulting from improper use. |
