Vci film - Import export

EXCOR VALENO Skin Film adheres to the packed product as tightly as a second skin and retains the product on the so-called skinboard. VCI skin packages are particularly suitable for protecting small items and replacement parts from mechanical and corrosive damage. In practical applications it is advisable to combine EXCOR VALENO Skin Film with EXCOR ABRIGO Skinboard because fibre boards with no corrosion protection can induce corrosion if they come into direct contact with metal surfaces. All EXCOR VALENO Skin Films are suitable for use in packing machines.

All EXCOR VALENO Flat Film can be used in automated packaging processes. Made from polyethylene, it has a wide range of applications, for instance as interleaving sheets and for wrapping and lining purposes. The EXCOR VCI substance is integrated into the polymer matrix. The anti-corrosion effect is long-term and active over large areas.

Shrink film produces a close bond between the packaging film and the packaged merchandise. The heat-induced shrinking process causes the film to cling tightly to the merchandise or container, thereby avoiding vulnerable points which may suffer damage during shipment or transport. Shrink film may be processed manually, semi-automatically or fully automatically. The shrinking properties may be adjusted to the specific application in terms of both direction and degree of shrinkage. The standard version of EXCOR VALENO shrink film shrinks biaxially, i.e., equally in all directions. Individually tailored degrees of monoaxial or biaxial shrinkage can also be produced on request. All VALENO shrink film is made of polyethylene and can be used in packing machines. The EXCOR VCI substance is integrated into the polymer matrix and active on both sides.

VALENO Stretch Film combines the tried-and-tested corrosion protection afforded by EXCOR VCI with the specific properties of a stretch film. VALENO Stretch Film is a universal medium for the shape-hugging wrapping of merchandise stacked in open containers and the secure bundling of shaped pieces and tubing, while also providing a protective skin for metal parts and coils. Its smooth outer surface prevents wrapped merchandise packages from adhering to each other and facilitates the handling of stretched packages. The VCI corrosion protection integrated into the polyethylene-polymer matrix of EXCOR VALENO Stretch Film is active on both sides. VALENO Stretch Film can be used both manually and in packing machines.

VALENO Bubble Film is flexible, light internal packaging made of polyethylene which provides excellent cushioning coupled with active EXCOR VCI corrosion protection. It acts as an air cushion which protects metal surfaces from vibration and impacts during transport. EXCOR VALENO Bubble Film is available in rolls and sheets or as bags, tubes and covers.

Ready-made bags and covers simplify the packing process and provide a sealed protective area. EXCOR VALENO Bags and Covers are made from a protective polyethylene film. The EXCOR VCI substance impregnated into the polyethylene provides metal products with long-term protection. Additional extras are available such as self-sealing, customer-specific printing, ESD protection, fire retardant properties, specific mechanical strength properties and transparency and may be combined as desired.

EXCOR UNICO is a soft open-cell foam 5 mm thick which has been impregnated with VCI. Thanks to its cellular structure it has a very large diffusing surface area which means that the VCIs rapidly reach saturation point within the packaging. UNICO foam can be used as a VCI booster in very voluminous film packages. UNICO foam is available in rolls or sheets. It is odour-free, dry and resistant to ageing. If you wish to attach it to walls or lids EXCOR can supply the product fitted with a self-adhesive strip.

VCI 8003 is the safest VCI chemistry available for both workers and the environment. Its components are included on the FDA’s list of materials approved for contact with food, CFR 21 and they are widely used in body care products. VCI 8003 is supplied as a transparent, color-free masterbatch that can be added to other masterbatch resins or can be mixed with other additives like colorants, UV protection, Anti-static, Anti block, among others. The compatability with other additives in combination with VCI 8003 must be tested in advance. Applying VCI 8003 can be added to LDPE/LLDPE/MDPE and HDPE mixtures at a ratio of 4 % to the total finished weight for films of 60-120 microns. It is an advantage to produce coextruded film with VCI 8003 added only to the inner layer, since the dosage can then be reduced (as an example, for 100 microns film, VCI 8003 can be applied at 8% to the inner layer of 40 microns).
