Branorost Chips

BRANOrost Chips are placed or hung in packaging or cavities with tightly sealed outer walls. The better the outer seal, the longer-lasting the protection. Depending on the size of the packaging, small-format chips such as cut-outs or punch outs can be used. Large-format chips are also available. The distance between the BRANOrost Chips and the metal will depend on the packaging volume and the amount of time needed for a protective atmosphere to build up. As a rule of thumb, the amount of time needed for a fully protective atmosphere to build up at a distance of 30 cm for steel and cast iron and at 12 cm for copper and its alloys is approximately 15 minutes and 24 hours respectively. The surfaces to be protected must be dry and free from corrosion-promoting residues such finger sweat, aggressive detergent-based substances and others. Acids and strong alkaline can also affect the corrosion protection system. The protected materials should be kept away from direct contact with wood or acidic materials. It is also important to make sure that relative atmospheric humidity is kept low and that there is no atmospheric contamination (make sure that there is no wood in the packaging).
