RUST
Rust is compounding formed by the oxidation of iron in the presence of moisture.
The term “Rust” is restricted to iron and steel only. While the term “Corrosion” is
applicable
to all metals.
Temperature :
Diurnal changes in temperature may induce stress due to differential
expansion and result in failure of stores where two or more materials are
used.
Diurnal changes in temperature may also result in dew formation and
subsequent
corrosion
Dew formation results in failure of electrical/electronic equipment
Rubber, certain polymers and metal like molybdenum and zinc die-casting
Dusts are sediment on the materials and observe the water particles
from
humid / moisture and make the material as wet condition and initiate the
corrosion.

DAMAGES DUE TO TECHNICAL
Unfavorable storage conditions
Some of the materials shall be kept under climatic control store. This
kind of material we stacked in out side of WH means it will unfit for
use.
Example:
Electronics goods stored in Lay down Yard
Wrong storage method
Materials were stored for longer time it may be become unfit for use.

Visual Inspection
The corroded materials are immerged in the chemical solution bath and sock for some time. During the socking
time
the chemical react with the rust and remove the rust from the surface.
After that the treated material shall be treated with diluted solution to stop the chemical reactions.
High Cost
Low quality
Proper polythene bag covering for actuators and motor Assy. to be applied.
For over 8” Blinds & spades no need of end capes, but maintain 25mm gap
Picture
waterproof
paper or VPI paper is a cheap method of protection. However, the material
protected in this way should be stored under cover.
Gasket shall be stored as same received condition.
Big size gaskets should not be stored on the small size gaskets.

Dust
Main symptom of deterioration is development of tackiness and softness,
crack development, surface crazing, brittleness, loss of shape, fungal
growth
and tendering of rubberized fabric.

Note :
General methods of preservation and any specific instruction from
manufactures for preservation shall additionally be followed.
Cleanliness:
All Stores rooms must of swept daily and cobwebs are removed. Cracks
and crevices must be filled up. If possible saw dust shall be spread over the
floor before sweeping. It stops spreading of dirt and dust in the air and
subsequently accumulating on the storage racks and materials lying on
them.
Ventilation
Air must be allowed to circulate freely throughout the storage area. The
only exception is in respect of rubber articles where ventilation has to be
restricted to a slow natural circulation of air. Free aeration helps in keeping
the stores and stores rooms dry, and prevent accumulation of heat within the
stocks, bundles and stores.
