DALLAS, Aug. 9, 2007 (PRIME NEWSWIRE) -- Frame Destination, Inc. is carrying a new line of CD/DVD archival storage products that prevent CD/DVD rot and corrosion using technology developed by Lucent Bell Labs. Corrosion Intercept(r) Technology can extend the life of compact discs from 40-120 years according to testing done by Lucent Bell Labs. ArchivalWare(r) CD/DVD storage products, manufactured by University Product, Inc., help protect them from the 4 primary mechanisms causing data loss: Ozone (oxidation of the Aluminum reflective layer), UV Light, Biological damage (fungus and bacterial growth), and ESD (electrostatic discharge), thereby providing the best prevention of disc rot available today.
Corrosion Intercept(r) is a revolutionary, patented technology which uses semi-conductor technology to transform plastic into a protective reactive barrier against corrosive gases, fungus and bacteria. It is comprised of highly reactive copper particles bonded into a polymer matrix. This matrix film forms a preferential corrosion site that reacts and neutralizes all corrosive gases that pass through or come in contact with the film.
Ozone and reactive oxygen causes the aluminum layer on the CD/DVD to break down. When aluminum in a thin film oxidizes, it becomes clear and unable to reflect the laser pulse attempting to read the disc. ArchivalWare(r) and Corrosion Intercept(r) protects against this failure. The permanent neutralization of corrosive gasses also prevents fungus and bacterial growth. The unique designs of the ArchivalWare(r) CD Preservers allow full visibility of the face of the CD/DVD while protecting the data side of the disc. The clear film, which is UV protected, will not lift images from the face of laser or inkjet produced labels.
This unique and convenient storage system assures you the maximum protection technology currently offers. Jewel inserts help protect CD/DVDs from the out gassing of the CD Jewel case itself. ArchivalWare(r) 8-CD Page Storage Pages and Albums featuring slipcases allow manufacturer recommended vertical storage with additional light/dust protection.
