Axxanol™ 718-ESS vs. Conformal Coatings: Choosing the Right Corrosion Protection Solution
Corrosion protection holds key importance in electrical and electronic applications. Two common approaches for achieving this are conformal coatings (CC) and ZERUST® Axxanol™ 718-ESS, a multimetal electrical corrosion inhibitor spray. In this blog post, we’ll delve into the key differences between these two methods, their respective advantages and disadvantages, and how Axxanol™ 718-ESS stacks up

Preventing Corrosion in Metal Goods During Transit: ZERUST® Transit Coatings
Globalization is based on transporting metal goods, but it has challenges. One of these challenges is protecting metal goods from corrosion during domestic and international transit. As a result, manufacturers transporting metal goods can suffer significant financial losses and reputational damage due to corrosion. Fortunately, ZERUST® transit coatings offer a reliable solution to this problem.

What Is the Difference Between VCI Rolls and Sheets?
We’re commonly asked by our customers, “what is the difference between VCI Rolls and Sheets?”. So, we’ll take a quick look into VCI and the difference between the two options. VCI (Vapor Corrosion Inhibitor) packaging materials are commonly used to protect metal surfaces from corrosion during transportation and storage. These VCI poly materials work by releasing

What Is the Best Rust Preventative for Your Application?
Rust is a persistent problem for metal surfaces, especially those exposed to harsh environments. If left unchecked, rust can cause significant damage and undermine the strength of metal objects. So, to safeguard against rust, it’s essential to use the right rust preventative. But with so many options available, it can be tough to determine which

5 Reasons the Steel Coil Industry Prefers VCI Paper and Poly for Optimal Steel Coil Corrosion Protection
Corrosion is a significant challenge in the steel coil industry, causing damage to steel coils and resulting in decreased productivity and profitability. As a result, rust-preventative coatings have commonly been used by steel coil suppliers and manufacturers to provide steel coil corrosion protection during storage and transportation. However, one solution in the steel coil industry has

What Should You Consider When Choosing a VCI Supplier?
Are you in search of a VCI supplier due to company specifications? Currently experiencing corrosion issues at your facility? or just unhappy with the products and services provided by your current VCI supplier? No matter the reason for your search, when choosing a VCI supplier, you should consider this. Is the VCI supplier reputable (ISO

The Cost of Corrosion
Rust can be an ugly sight. But when it comes to the industries that rely on non-corroded metal to run, rust can also lead to some nasty consequences that aren’t always quite so visible: lack of productivity, accidents, and a significant financial loss. Companies are leaching billions of dollars out of their business each year

Corrosion Solutions for Hydrostatic Testing
Hydrostatic testing of pressure vessels, such as pipes, heat exchangers, storage tanks, and ship voids, is essential for verifying the integrity of these components post-production and during use. This process demonstrates that the equipment can handle operational pressures safely, identifying any potential weak points needing repair. The procedure typically involves raising the internal pressure above

Enhance Your Part Cleaning With the Use of ZERUST® Products
Part cleaning is an essential step in the manufacturing process, as precision metal parts typically have oils, greases, and other lubricants on the surface after the part is manufactured. These residues can prevent the adhesion of coatings and paints and accelerate corrosion if not properly removed. Manufacturers understand the importance of delivering clean parts in
