ResiCor is Vapor corrosion Inhibitor Additive. It is Anti-corrosion Additive use to prevent corrosion on metal surfaces.

Corrosion is the process of oxidizing ferrous and non-ferrous surfaces, which occurs in the presence of oxygen and moisture. The corrosive effects are accelerated in acidic environments. However, the formation of oxide layer on the surface can provide a natural protection for the metal. Unfortunately, corrosion not only damages the mechanical properties of metals but also leads to significant global economic losses.

Preventing contact between metals and either oxygen or moisture can effectively avoid corrosion.

VCIs are used as additives to packaging materials, including paper and plastic. The presence of anti-corrosion chemicals protects the packaged items from corrosion. The packaging is common for automotive, steel, metal, and military packaging.

ResiCor complies and passes the following standards:

1. Razor blade test
2. ASTM B- 117 (Salt Spray Test)
3. TL8135 002 APL 010 (Short Term German Test Method)
4. TL8135 002 APL 004 (Long Term German Test Method)
5. ROHS – EN71 Part 3 (Heavy Metals Standard)
6. REACH Compliant

ResiCor is compatible with Polyolefins, PLA and PBAT with recommended dosage of 1500 ppm to 10,000 ppm, depending upon the protection required.
