The Various Official Flavors of the Jar Test: Evaluating the Efficacy of Volatile Corrosion Inhibitors (VCI)
The use of anti-corrosive packaging materials functionalized with volatile corrosion inhibitors (VCI) to preserve processed metal parts is a critical component of any sound corrosion management program. Evaluating the efficacy of VCI packaging to provide off-contact protection of steel surfaces is commonly performed in the laboratory using the Vapor-phase Inhibition Ability (VIA) test, also known
