CORROSION INTERCEPT®
CI is being used by a number of renowned companies.
Intercept Advantages:
• Environmentally-friendly (no migration of particles and elements) when
used as directed
• High effectiveness ( from –35°C to +80°C)
• Long durability ( > 10 Years per mil of resin under average
atmospheric conditions)
• Protects all Ferrous- and Non-Ferrous metals, electronics, optics and
plastics from atmospheric corrosion
• Universally usable
• Cost-effective
6. Function
CI Products consist of special high surface area copper particles
which are reacted into the polymer-matrix to create a new class
of product with several protective functions:
• Neutralization of corrosive gases present in the bag and
migrating gases
• Protection as an “Anode“ for electro-chemical processes
• Natural function against Bio-Corrosion (copper is a passive
mildewcide)

Workers‘ Safety & Environment
- Intercept is not a VCI
- There is no outgassing and there are no VOC issues related
to Intercept
- There are no restrictions for Intercept in regards to:
- German Gov’t TRGS 615 – Intercept is compliant
- RoHS - Intercept meets RoHS initiative in Europe
- Fully reusable and recyclable as colored PE in Europe
CORROSION INTERCEPT® was tested by NASA for
contamination – certified for space-flight conditions
10. CI Benefits
• Eliminates the need for oils, greases and
solvents
• Saves Labor dollars and time
• Contains no volatile compounds
• Provides long-term protection
• Ease of application
• Inexpensive compared to other products when
considering all packaging costs
11. Intercept Stretch Wrap Benefits:
• Corrosion Intercept may be wrapped over irregular
shapes – flip the film over to get the film to tack closed
• Corrosion Intercept acts as a moisture vapor barrier-
preventing moisture from entering the package
• Corrosion Intercept film may be adequate to hold the
object on a pallet without additional packaging.
12. Corrosion Intercept film (far right) placed in an atmosphere
containing chlorine performs significantly better than
other packaging films (foil, blue poly, volatile corrosion
inhibitor).
13. In addition to acting as a barrier to external
atmospheric gases the Corrosion Intercept film
scavenges any corrosive gases that might be
enclosed in the air space inside the package.
Corrosion Intercept also acts as a sacrificial anode
and prevents cathodic corrosion.

Many companies apply light oils,
greases, Cosmoline or other
protective coatings to protect the
metal products while in storage or
during shipping. Corrosion
Intercept eliminates the need for
these coatings, which may require
removal by solvents at the
customer site. Significant savings
in purchasing coatings and the
No Oils, Sprays, reduced labor requirements may
VCI Paper or be realized. The customer does
not have to spend hours cleaning
VCI Sponges the equipment and use hazardous
Required with solvents, which is a saving to
them.

Spare Parts – Supply Chain Storage /
Shipment
Requested Protection Period: 2 weeks to 2 years
Shipment of goods world-wide. Partially opening by customs.
Dramatic climatic changes.

Automobile Supply Chain & CKD
Applications
Problem: Partially long storage periods before or after shipment
under climatically difficult circumstances.
Application:STATIC INTERCEPT® and CORROSION
INTERCEPT® Films as alternative to Foil, VCI and wax-paper.
All components are protected equally well. Tests have been
performed by leading companies under realistic conditions for
the complete period of time required.
Further: Products are recyclable as colored PE and no further
protection (Oil, Wax, etc.) is needed besides sufficient amount of
desiccants (16 Units/m³).
Only one non-shelf-life material needed to stock.

SHIP CHINA TO US
The use of Intercept bags has allowed these engine
manifolds to be shipped from China to the US with
no protective oil coating – no oil to be applied, no
steam cleaning at receiving, no corrosion failures

… and of course better protection of
the goods against corrosion;
less damages due to opening of the
package for customs checks;
A clean and recyclable product,
with less probability of injury.
32. Cost
Initial pricing on the product is competitive with other
standard materials, the overall project cost has
always come out lower! In detailed tests the
following parameters were recorded
1. Procurement
2. Cost of storage (shelf-life)
3. Handling (Time, secondary components, etc.)
4. Effective (recorded damage improvement)
Intercept always came out cheaper than the
competition, with superior performance!
