Understanding The Usefulness of German Test Method TL 8135-002 For Various Steel Alloys

The utilization of volatile corrosion inhibitors (VCI) in dry packaging scenarios have become ubiquitous throughout industry for the protection of metal parts during shipping and storage. Initial protective packaging applications of VCIs involved coated paper which was used to wrap or interleave metal parts for transportation and/or storage. This type of wrapping evolved into film packaging where the inhibitors were extruded into film.

Corrosion Inhibitor (VCI) packaging has wide acceptance in the logistics world as an effective means for the protection of metal fabricated parts during shipping and storage. End users still rely on standard jar tests (Mil-Std VIA, TL8135-002, -034 and NACE TM0208-2018) to evaluate their supplier paper and film products. These tests are highly specific to apparatus design and operating conditions. None more important than test specimen alloy type. The narrow scope of these tests makes it difficult to determine if a VCI material will protect a customer's alloy. Herein, we discuss the behavior of various alloys of steel in the German Test Standard TL8135-002.
