ALFA SOLUTION LAUNCHES ENGINEERING CORROSION CONTROL PRODUCT RANGE
Corrosion protection specialist ALFA Solution (www.alfasolution.no) has launched a new range of VCI (volatile corrosion inhibiting) products for the engineering and manufacturing industries.
Molecules in the VCI vapour form an invisible barrier on ferrous and non-ferrous metal surfaces which inhibits the electro-chemical reactions that lead to corrosion.
The new ProGARDO range of VCI products from ALFA Solution includes tablets, capsules, films, bags, wipes, spray and desiccant.
The tablets can be placed in enclosed areas where they give off protective vapour, providing protection for up to five years. Larger capsules will also absorb chloride and sulphide gases to provide additional protection.
ProGARDO shrink wrap film is impregnated with VCI chemicals and is ideal for wrapping components or complete plant and machinery. ProGARDO bags are not only impregnated with VCI chemicals but can also be supplied containing desiccants that will draw moisture from the air.
Sprays and wipes in the ProGARDO range can be used to apply VCI chemicals directly to vulnerable surfaces and will clear minor existing corrosion.
Rune Johansen of ALFA Solution said: "Using two or more ProGARDO products in combination can provide total corrosion prevention for extended periods.”
ALFA Solution offers full instructions and, if appropriate, training in the use of the products.
Solutions can be customised for each individual requirement.
