VpCITechnology is a revolutionary, environmentally safe and cost-effective option for corrosion protection. Cortec® products protect with a thin, mono-molecular protective barrier. The barrier re-heals and self-replenishes, and can be combined with other functional properties for added protective capabilities. Vapor phase Corrosion Inhibitors form a physical bond on the metal surface and form a barrier layer to aggressive ions. For use in pipelines, oil and gas wells, refinery units and fuels
Creates a Molecular, Inhibiting Layer.- Conditions enclosed atmosphere with a protective vapor.
- Vapor migrates to all recessed areas and cavities.
- Vapor condenses on all metal surfaces.
- Ions dissolve in moisture layer (water electrolyte) .
- Protective ions are attracted to metal surfaces.
- Ions form a thin, monomolecular protective layer at the metal surface.
- Protective layer re-heals and self-replenishes through further condensation of the vapor
