Cortec releases new ESD stretch film for electronics packaging
Cortec releases the new EcoSonic VpCI-125 HP Permanent ESD Stretch Film. As the new film offers permanent electrostatic discharge (ESD) protection for electronics packaging, it stands out from the “pink poly” stretch films on the market.
Cortec releases new EcoSonic VpCI-125 HP Permanent ESD Stretch Film for electronics packaging.
EcoSonic VpCI-125 HP Permanent ESD Stretch Film can be used on standard stretch-wrapping equipment. It is safe to handle and apply. Moreover, the translucent nature of the film facilitates inspection and inventory without packaging removal.
The new stretch film also meets static decay requirements per MIL-STD 3010, Method 4046 before and after being stretched, providing static dissipation during wrapping and beyond for better quality assurance.
Two-in-one ESD and corrosion protection
Like other packaging options in the EcoSonic line, EcoSonic VpCI-125 HP Permanent ESD Stretch Film adds the special dimension of corrosion protection, making it an excellent choice for electronics at risk for both static and corrosion damage.
Vapor phase Corrosion Inhibitors in the film diffuse throughout the enclosed package, forming a protective molecular layer on multiple metal types being shipped or stored in uncontrolled environments.
Now in stretch wrap form, these dual properties provide an excellent option for shipping and handling large electronics modules that need to be secured on pallets.
Go beyond electronics
Thanks to its permanent static dissipative properties, EcoSonic VpCI-125 HP Permanent ESD Stretch Film is also an excellent option for other industries where static is a concern.
For example, munitions and fertilizers are two industries where it is imperative to reduce static exposure as much as possible. This can be difficult during stretch wrapping, when static naturally builds up under low-conductivity, high friction conditions.
While antistatic stretch film is not the only precaution that should be taken, using permanent antistatic stretch wrap is a great step as part of a larger static reduction strategy.
