Easy Solutions to Corrosion Problems
Cortec® has flexible solutions for you. VpCI® Technology covers corrosion protection in all phases of the electrical/electronic life cycle: shipping, storage, operation, or maintenance.
To start with, VpCI® Emitters are a great way to protect enclosed spaces. You can stick a VpCI® Emitter Cup into an electrical box—or add VpCI® Emitter Foams, Non-Wovens, or Pouches to a shipment of electronic components! VpCI® Emitters release Vapor phase Corrosion Inhibitors (Cortec’s proprietary VCI technology). These VpCI® molecules form a protective layer on metals inside the enclosed space. VpCI® molecules do not interfere with electronic/electrical operation and do not need to be removed before using the electrical/electronic equipment.
VpCI® Packaging Films & Bags work similarly. Not only do the bags create a physical barrier to corrosive elements—they also release Vapor phase Corrosion Inhibitors that protect the metals packaged inside. For extra protection, ESD additives prevent static damage during shipping and handling.
Need to do electronics maintenance? Keep a container of antistatic Wipes on hand to remove light rust and dust off sensitive electronics without causing ESD damage. Or clean up circuit boards with a quick spray of ElectriCorr™!
You can also apply ElectriCorr™ Sprays when you need a light protective film on contacts, relays, and other control equipment exposed to the open air.
Finally, you can make the environment less corrosive by using Absorbents. These products absorb corrosive moisture or gases that would normally attack your electricals. For maximum protection, combine them with other VpCI® Technologies!

Product Description
Description: With Cortec®’s unique VpCI®-101 emitter, protecting sensitive surfaces from corrosion has never been easier. Designed specifically for enclosed, non-ventilated spaces (such as control boxes, cabinets, toolboxes, etc.), each VpCI®-101 device protects up to 1 ft3 (28 L) of interior volume.
By slowly releasing Vapor phase Corrosion Inhibitors (VpCI®) into the enclosed environment, VpCI®-101 forms a molecular barrier on all metal surfaces inside, including recessed or otherwise hard-to-reach surfaces, providing more consistent and reliable corrosion protection than conventional
sprays or coatings.
Ideal for sensitive, critical, or complex multi-metal applications, such as electronics or highly specialized parts and components, VpCI®-101 provides long-term protection against corrosion even in adverse environments, including salt, moisture, airborne contaminants such as sulfur gasses, and
other harsh conditions.
Application: VpCI®-101 is extremely simple and convenient to install. At the earliest possible time — ideally during manufacturing or assembly — simply select a space within the enclosure, peel the adhesive backing, and press onto an inconspicuous surface free of oil or debris. Once sealed, the Vapor phase
Corrosion Inhibitors will migrate from the device onto the metal surfaces inside, forming a barrier against corrosive conditions.
Protection: 1.0 ft3 (.03 m3).
Package:Each VpCI®-101 is 3” (7.6 cm) x 1.25” (3.2 cm) x 0.25” (0.6 cm) and protects up to 1 ft3 (28 L) per device, with 50 individually wrapped devices packaged per carton. To ensure best product performance, keep sealed in original packaging, indoors, and out of direct sunlight at 40–100° F (4–
38° C).
Shelf life: 2 years
