I'm not sure what this is exactly, but just a warning: if you are looking to 
protect a part for solderability or bonding purposes, be careful of using any 
material which works by emitting a vapour which deposits a thin protective 
layer on the substrates. They are sometimes called VCIs (volatile corrosion 
inhibitors). The protective layer may not solder well, nor could you stick to 
it!
