EcoCortec (Beli Manastir, Croatia), the European subsidiary of Cortec Corporation, launched EcoSonic VpCI-125 PCR HP Permanent ESD Films and Bags. Made with a guaranteed 30% post-consumer recycled content, this is the world’s first permanent electrostatic discharge (ESD) film powered by nano-vapor phase corrosion inhibitors (VpCIs) with a high content of post-consumer recycled plastic. 

High-performance anti-static, corrosion inhibiting films and bags are designed to protect static sensitive multi-metal items such as electronics. EcoSonic VpCI-125 PCR HP Permanent ESD Films and Bags have been developed with a high amount of post-consumer recycled (PCR) content for the purpose of efficient recovery, recycling, and reuse of resources to minimize the economy’s negative ecological footprint. They help customers meet their sustainability goals without compromising quality specifications related to mechanical, corrosion inhibiting properties, and static discharge. 

Throughout their lifecycle, electronics face threats like ESD and corrosion. Even minor static charges can seriously damage these sensitive components. EcoSonic VpCI-125 PCR HP Permanent ESD Film offers a comprehensive and environmentally friendly protection solution. By providing ESD and corrosion prevention, this will protect electronics at every stage, from production to shipment. 

EcoSonic VpCI-125 PCR HP Permanent ESD Films and Bags contain permanent anti-static properties to immediately reduce or eliminate static buildup as long as they are in use, independent of the presence of humidity. A molecular corrosion inhibiting layer is formed on metal substrates and does not interfere with the physical or chemical properties of electronic components. VpCIs will protect void spaces and recessed areas 

EcoSonic VpCI-125 PCR HP Permanent ESD Films and Bags are excellent for packaging static-sensitive components where triboelectric charge generation and corrosion are concerns. They are recommended for packaging integrated circuits, printed circuit boards, PCB components, telecommunications equipment, electronic and electrical panels, and enclosures. They will not affect optical properties, plastics used in electronics industry, or solderability of PCB or parts (IPC-J-STD003C). In addition, they conform to NACE Standard RP 0487-2000 and to MIL-PRF-81705, IEC 61340-5-1. 

EcoCortec’s anticorrosion and bioplastics manufacturing facility is committed to innovation and sustainability, contributing to the circular economy through the use of high amounts of recycled content. For more information on EcoSonic VpCI-125 PCR HP Permanent ESD Films and Bags, click here
