Vapor-phase corrosion inhibitor product
First Claim
1. A corrosion inhibitor assembly for emission of vapor phase corrosion inhibitor compound inserted into a shipping or packaging container, comprising:
- an outer encasement envelope constructed of sheet stock having vapor porous properties for permitting vapor to pass into and out of the envelope, said envelope being sealed to form an inner chamber with at least a portion of said porous sheet stock configured to provide vapor passage from the chamber; and
a combination of a generally inert substrate material with embedded vapor phase corrosion inhibiting compound located within the chamber of the envelope.

Abstract
The present invention provides a corrosion inhibitor assembly or emission of vapor phase corrosion inhibitor compound inserted into a shipping/packaging container. The assembly has a pouch formed as an envelope of vapor porous surrounding sidewall defining an inner compartment of a fill material composed of an inert substrate with embedded corrosion-inhibitor emitting compounds. The substrate acts as a substantially inert carrier for the compounds, to avoid the need for friable solids or powders in the pouch, yet permit vapor flow of compounds though the sidewall to area outside the pouch.

11. A corrosion inhibitor assembly for emission of vapor phase corrosion inhibiting compound, comprising:
-
an outer encasement envelope constructed of vapor porous sheet stock configured to permit vapor to pass through the envelope; and a mixture of substrate material and vapor phase corrosion inhibiting compound material residing inside said envelope, said corrosion inhibiting compound material being incorporated into said substrate such that said mixture is not readily frangible and said inhibiting compound material is configured to emit vapor phase corrosion inhibitor compounds while otherwise being generally inseparable from said substrate. - View Dependent Claims (12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20)

21. A method of providing corrosion inhibiting compounds in the vapor of a packaging for a product, comprising:
-
providing an encasement envelope constructed of vapor porous sheet stock and having at least one fill opening for receiving a fill material and configured to be sealed; inserting the fill material into said envelope and subsequently sealing said envelope, the fill material comprising a mixture of substrate material and vapor phase corrosion inhibiting compound material incorporated into said substrate such that the mixture is not readily frangible into powder form, said envelope and fill material being configured for placement into a packaging container of a product for the vapor phase corrosion inhibitor being released in the interior environment of the container. - View Dependent Claims (22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30)

31. A pouch of vapor-phase corrosion inhibitor mixture for use as an added item in a packaging container with intended emission of vapor phase corrosion inhibiting compound into the packaging interior environment, comprising:
a synthetic outer encasement envelope constructed of vapor porous sheet stock configured to permit vapor to pass through the envelope, said envelope containing a non-frangible and non-friable fill material made of a base medium hosting a corrosion inhibiting compound material that is configured to release vapor-phase corrosion inhibiting compound to the environment surrounding the envelope, wherein the fill material is in the form of a visible solid that is generally absent of visible powder and not readily crushed into a powdered form. - View Dependent Claims (32, 33, 34, 35, 36, 37, 38, 39, 40)
