(1) V l til f i t ti d t t
Unique Points w ith Intercept(1) Volatile free corrosion protection, does not outgas.
(2) Permanently anti-static, which is key for protecting electronics and for protecting
Aluminum based materials
(3) Long, stable shelf life (in excess of 15 years) and long stable useful life
(4) Prevents mold and mildew – no other material does this.
(5) Intercept shrink film is designed for up to 5 years outside in harsh desert(5) Intercept shrink film is designed for up to 5 years outside in harsh desert
environments
(6) Intercept shrink film is RFID Transparent
(7) Intercept has a color change indicator – it starts out dark brown on the inside which
changes colors to jet black as it is used up.
(8) Intercept by blocking ozone, UV and mold can help protect gaskets, tires and
rubber based materials – Intercept will not adversely impact rubber or gaskets, will
not cause swelling.
(9) Intercept is polycarbonate compatible.

with no-outgassing for personnel safety) allows for

The use of zipper access
panels, taped into place

complete, allows for re-
entry. No hermetic seals
required.
Sometimes items are needed to be protected, but cannot take

– Intercept Shrink Films can be used to protect without
shrinking, even in demanding applications.

(2) Restrictions and limitations in the use of VCI VCI(2) Restrictions and limitations in the use of VCI. VCI
materials will not protect all metals from corrosion; in fact, they appear to increase the rate of corrosion in certain metals.
VCI materials are affected by heat and light. They lose their effectiveness as thetemperature in. creases and they decompose if exposed to direct sunlight for extended periods. They also decompose in the presence of acids or strong alkalies Precautions must be taken when VCI is used with items assembliesalkalies. Precautions must be taken when VCI is used with items, assemblies,and subassemblies containing zinc plate, cadmium, zinc. base alloys, magnesium base alloys, lead base alloys, and alloys of other metals including solders and brazing alloys. If such items contain more than 30 percent of zinc or 9percent of lead, they must not be preserved with VCI. In all cases direct contact of VCI with non ferrous metals except aluminum and aluminum-base alloys should be avoided unless specific permission has been granted. Care should also be taken with assemblies containing plastics, painted parts, or components oftaken with assemblies containing plastics, painted parts, or components of natural or synthetic rubber. Assemblies containing parts made of thesematerials should not be packed with VCI until proof is established that they have passed the compatibility test required by Specification Mn..-I-8574.

How Intercept Works – I t is not a VCI
Intercept delivers protection by reacting with andIntercept delivers protection by reacting with and then permanently neutralizing the corrosive elements
Chemically bonds to and removes airborne contamination
Humidity and temperature independent
Effective at low and high concentrations of gases
Intercept is not a VCI, it contains no volatiles, no oils
I t comes dow n to Great Chemistry…Only Intercept utilizes high-surface area Copper particles (CU) that are bound firmly into the polymer-Only Intercept utilizes high-surface area Copper particles (CU) that are bound firmly into the polymer-
matrix. Their unique ability to quickly and efficiently neutralize corrosive gases provides protection
against corrosion like no other material available for industry.
Intercept creates a
reactive barrier
keeping the gases
th tthat cause
corrosion out, and
provides cleansing
of the trapped air pp
inside the
package, creating
a clean micro-
environment Thisenvironment. This
allows for re-use
and opening in the
field.

The Tw o Best Methods Found for C t lli RH d C d t iControlling RH and Condensat ion
(1) Hang Desiccant – needs to be replaced whenever the enclosure is opened.
Desiccant must be removed prior to operation (16 units / m3 of free air space)Desiccant must be removed prior to operation (16 units / m3 of free air space).
(2) Use our unique method of Intercept pillows to reduce the trapped air inside
large void areas. Condensation predominantly will occur inside the pillow.
