Cortec® has produced what it calls a EcoEmitter® which it claims can provide some degree of protection for electronic and optical equipment and components.

The polymeric cup has been redesigned to replace polyethylene and is constructed from OK
Biobased 3-star rated resins containing 60-80% renewable carbon content. The active corrosion inhibiting powder is nontoxic and
biodegradable; each emitter is individually packaged in certified compostable film, and placed in a box containing 30% post consumer
recycled content.
This device is designed to provide corrosion protection for metal components and
parts enclosed in nonventilated cabinets and tool or control boxes. Each
compact space saving EcoEmitter® is powered by NANO VpCI™
corrosion inhibiting technology conditioning the space and adsorbing
onto metal surfaces providing a microscopic molecular layer of
corrosion protection. Vapor phase molecules sublimate from the solid
phase and emit through the 100% biobased breathable membrane to
provide continuous long-term multimetal protection, even in the
harshest conditions, for up to 24 months during operation and/or
shutdown.
