Rust preventive packaging materials can be used for rust protection during the storage and transportation of steel coils such as cold-rolled steel sheets, pickled steel plates, and hot rolled steel sheets. The dataset includes primary raw materials, auxiliary materials, energy consumption, atmospheric emissions, and waste from the production process; however, infrastructure such as production equipment and factory construction is not included within the system boundary. The life cycle inventory is compiled from data sourced from multiple origins. The manufacturing process of rust preventive packaging materials includes pulp making, papermaking, coating, drying, slitting, and packaging.
