Product Characteristics
BRANOfol M3 are blue dyed, special polyethylene film with double-sided active VCI corrosion protection which effectively protect metal parts from corrosion during transport or storage.
They are water-proof, weldable and suitable for automatic packaging as well as bag production. BRANOfol M3 are available from 40 to 300 μm and also available as VCI-embossing film.
BRANOfol products continuously release small amounts of corrosion protection agents (VCI: Volatile Corrosion Inhibitors), helping to provide effective protection against corrosion for metal parts during transport or storage.
The protecting atmosphere is, depending on the volume of the package, available after a short time. This holds true even after having opened the package for a short time – the protecting atmosphere will be rebuilt immediately afterwards.
Duration of Protection
Depending on climate conditions and how well the packaging is sealed, BRANOfol M3 can offer protection for up to twelve months. The duration of protection can be adapted when the precise application is known.
BRANOfol M3(nitrite free)
Protects steel,cast iron(only on contact), zinc plated steel, tin, aluminum, chromium, zinc, copper and its alloys reliably against corrosion.
