Australian Inhibitor

About

AUSTRALIAN INHIBITOR MAKES EXTENSIVE USE OF SPECIALISED INHIBITORS.

These Inhibitors take the form of both Vapour Corrosion Inhibitors Vapour Corrosion Inhibitor (VCI) and Contact Corrosion Inhibitors (CCI). These specialised and tailored additives become an integral part of the final products Australian Inhibitor offers our clients.

Australian Inhibitors selection of papers, films, foils and liquids offer excellent physical protection from water and moisture. Each material is tailored for a specific application.

Our VCI's provide long term protection from corrosion through direct contact and also via a corrosion preventing vapour (VCI) released directly from our product. At a molecular level our VCI inhibitors suppress corrosion in three ways;

The VCI passivate the electron flow between anode & cathode areas on the metal surface.

The VCI forms a physical hydrophobic layer that prevents water & moisture directly contacting the metal & acting as an electrolyte.

The VCI regulates the PH value of the electrolyte.

Put very simply the corrosion inhibitors in Australian Inhibitors product range are drawn to metal surfaces, the attraction is so strong that a vapour of inhibitors will build a VCI skin over your product. This 3-5 micron thick barrier prevents oxidisation - stopping corrosion. Remove the packaging containing VCI's and this barrier will begin to dissipate – leaving your componentry corrosion free and ready to use.
