Storage and transport protection for temporary corrosion protection
Metal components are often exposed to fluctuating environmental conditions during storage and transport. Moisture and condensation can cause corrosion even within a short period of time.
- Application
- Tools, Semi-Finished Products & Metal Surfaces
- Exposure
- Weathering, Condensation & Storage Conditions
- System
- Oil- or Wax-Based Protective Film
- Protection Period
- Temporary / Depending on Film Type
Technical challenge
Changes in temperature and humidity promote the formation of condensation on unprotected surfaces. At the same time, the protective film must remain removable when necessary.
