Vapor Phase Inhibitors (VpCI) - Diffusion Analogies

Based on Diffusion Principle

How Does VpCI Work?

  • Corrosion inhibiting molecules are emitted from their source
  • Molecules naturally diffuse from the source toward the metal
  • Molecules are absorbed forming a protective film on metal
  • Film protects metal from corrosion
