Abstract
The present invention relates to a corrosion protection system and a method of protecting an article from corrosion by placing the article to be protected in a gas impermeable enclosure comprising at least one shell that is adapted to maintain an internal pressure greater than an external pressure outside of the corrosion protection system, placing at least one corrosion preventing device selected from a desiccant, a corrosion inhibitor, an inert gas, or a combination thereof, and sealing the gas impermeable enclosure of the corrosion protection system.
Claims33
A method of protecting one or more articles from corrosion comprising the steps of:
- (A) placing the one or more articles to be protected in a corrosion protection system, the corrosion protection system comprising a gas impermeable enclosure for holding one or more articles to be protected;
- (B) placing at least one corrosion preventing device into the gas impermeable enclosure, wherein the at least one corrosion preventing device is selected from a desiccant, a corrosion inhibitor, an inert gas, or a combination thereof;
- and
- (C) sealing the gas impermeable enclosure,
- wherein the gas impermeable enclosure comprises at least two gas impermeable shells comprising an outer shell and an inner shell, wherein the inner and outer shells are adapted to maintain internal pressures greater than the external pressure outside of the corrosion protection system and the at least two shells define a gas impermeable space therebetween, and the pressure inside the inner shell is less than the pressure inside the space between the inner and outer shells.
A method of protecting one or more articles from corrosion comprising the steps of:
- (A) placing the one or more articles to be protected in a corrosion protection system, the corrosion protection system comprising a gas impermeable enclosure for holding one or more articles to be protected;
- (B) placing at least one corrosion preventing device into the gas impermeable enclosure, wherein the at least one corrosion preventing device is selected from a desiccant, a corrosion inhibitor, an inert gas, or a combination thereof;
- and
- (C) sealing the gas impermeable enclosure,
- wherein the gas impermeable enclosure comprises at least two gas impermeable shells comprising an outer shell and an inner shell, wherein the at least two shells are adapted to maintain internal pressures greater than the external pressure outside of the corrosion protection system and the at least two shells define a gas impermeable space therebetween, and the pressure inside the space between the outer shell and the inner shell is less than the pressure inside the inner shell.
A corrosion protection system comprising:
- a gas impermeable enclosure for holding one or more articles to be protected;
- and
- at least one corrosion preventing device located within the gas impermeable enclosure,
- wherein the at least one corrosion preventing device is selected from a desiccant, a corrosion inhibitor, an inert gas, or a combination thereof,
- wherein the gas impermeable enclosure comprises at least two gas impermeable shells comprising an inner shell and an outer shell, and
- wherein the inner and outer shells are adapted to maintain internal pressures greater than the external pressure outside of the corrosion protection system and the at least two shells define a gas impermeable space therebetween, and the pressure inside the inner shell is less than the pressure inside the space between the inner and outer shells.
A corrosion protection system comprising:
- a gas impermeable enclosure for holding one or more articles to be protected;
- and
- at least one corrosion preventing device located within the gas impermeable enclosure,
- wherein the at least one corrosion preventing device is selected from a desiccant, a corrosion inhibitor, an inert gas, or a combination thereof,
- wherein the gas impermeable enclosure comprises at least two gas impermeable inner and outer shells, and
- wherein the at least two shells are adapted to maintain internal pressures greater than the external pressure outside of the corrosion protection system and the at least two shells define a gas impermeable space therebetween, and the pressure inside the space between the inner and outer shells is less than the pressure inside the inner shell.
