How long does it take for the interior of a Zerust / Excor®ICT®package to reach its designed corrosion prevention capability?
The time required for active corrosion inhibiting molecules from the ICT® product to saturate a package is a function of the volume and temperature of the package. Protection begins as soon as corrosion inhibiting molecules reach the metal surfaces, and maximum protection is achieved when the entire environment of the package is saturated with the corrosion inhibiting molecules. Saturation in typical factory environments and in typical CKD packaging applications runs from 12 to 24 hours.
