Product Characteristics

BRANOfol Cu is a special polyethylene Mono- or Coex- VCI corrosion protection film which effectively protects copper and its alloys from corrosion

during transport or storage.

It is water-proof, weldable and suitable for automatic packaging as well as bag production. BRANOfol Cu is available in different colours, from 40 to 300 μm and also as VCI-embossing film.

BRANOfol products continuously release small amounts of corrosion protection agents (VCI: Volatile Corrosion Inhibitors), helping to provide effective protection against corrosion for metal parts during transport or storage.

The protecting atmosphere is, depending on the volume of the package, available after a short time. This holds true even after having opened the package for a short time – the protecting atmosphere will be rebuilt immediately afterwards.

Duration of Protection

Depending on climate conditions and how well the packaging is sealed, BRANOfol Cu can offer protection for up to twelve months. The duration of protection can be extended if the application, storage and transport are well known.

BRANOfol Cu（nitrite free,surpass test standard DIN EN ISO 6270-2）

Protects copper and its alloys.

※ The scope of protection can be extended if the used materials and alloys are known in detail.

Facts

The information corresponds with typical values of BRANOfol 100μm VCI film Binding are the respective product specifications.

Please pay close attention to thickness and impermeability to water vapour when selecting your VCI films. Both of these parameters are of decisive importance for corrosion protection and should therefore be selected with the specific application in mind.
