Combat Electrostatic Discharge with ESD Control Packaging
Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) can be a silent but serious threat to electronic components and sensitive devices. ESD occurs when there is a sudden flow of electricity between two objects caused by contact, which can lead to damaging electrical components. ESD control packaging is crucial for protecting these sensitive items. Texas Technologies has many packaging solutions […]

Let’s explore what makes the VpCI® 126 […]
High Performance VpCI Packaging
Cortec® VpCI® films and bags replace conventional rust preventatives such as oils and desiccants, allowing your product to be used immediately without cleaning or degreasing. VpCI®-125 bags effectively protect components from electrostatic discharge. VpCI®-125 conforms to the surface resistivity and static decay requirements of MIL-PRF-81705D (Static Dissipative Packaging Materials). VpCI®-125 is non-toxic and doesn’t contain […]
How VCI Works
What is VCI Technology VCI is the generic term for “volatile corrosion inhibitor,” “vapor corrosion inhibitor,” or “Vapor phase Corrosion Inhibitor,” a revolutionary technology that simplifies corrosion protection and is ideal for keeping enclosed void spaces (e.g., packages, equipment internals, or structural metal cavities) rust-free. Cortec has trademarked their brand of VCIs under the name […]
Reinforced Paper for Puncture Prone Metals Packaging
One challenge that metal manufacturers and finishers face is corrosion protection during shipping and storage. Many strategies exist, from coatings and liquid rust preventatives to VCI packaging. The latter has revolutionized the way metals are protected in an enclosed package, replacing greasy rust preventatives with dry corrosion protection. Yet manufacturers with sharp or pointed metal […]
VpCI® Paper Brings Flexibility to Integrated Corrosion Solutions
CorShield® VpCI®-146 Paper is a great material to use on its own for packaging, storing, and shipping small components that require cushioning and corrosion protection in a dry environment. However, it can also be an excellent addition to more complex in-process, shipping, or preservation projects that call for the integration of multiple products. 146 Paper […]
