21、 of electric stress may cause corrosion of metal parts being in contact with them. Such electrolytic corrosion is dependent upon the composition of the insulating material and the character of the metal; it is influenced by temperature, relative humidity, nature of the voltage and the time of exposu
22、re. Direct voltage produces much more rapid and extensive corrosion than alterna-ting voltage. Corrosion is more pronounced at the positive electrode. Not only copper but also most other metals, except the noble metals such as platinum or gold, are subject to electrolytic corrosion. Electrolytic cor
23、rosion, however, is usually determined with insulating materials in contact with copper, brass or aluminium. Copper, however, is a basic metal and most frequently used in electrotechnical, teletechnical and electronic equipment, especially for current conducting parts and therefore it was chosen as
24、a basic test metal. Other metals may be used when needed for special purposes, but the results may differ from those described in this method. Electrolytic corrosion may cause open-circuit failure in electrical conductors and devices. It may promote low resistance leakage path across or through elec
25、trical insulation and the products of corrosion may otherwise interfere with the operation of electrical devices, i.e. may prevent operation of contacts, etc. Electronic equipment operating under conditions of high humidity and elevated temperature may be particularly subjected to failure from elect
26、rolytic corrosion. Therefore, the selection of insulating materials, which do not produce electrolytic corrosion, is important for such applications. The test method described in this second edition replaces two separate methods of the first edition visual and tensile strength method. The former ten
27、sile strength method of the first edition, using copper wires, has been maintained in an informative annex. It must be emphasized that the advantage of this new method is that the same strip used for visual inspection is next used for the tensile strength test in opposite to the method described in
28、the first edition. Therefore the correlation between tensile strength and visual examination is more obvious. EN 60426:2007 6 ELECTRICAL INSULATING MATERIALS DETERMINATION OF ELECTROLYTIC CORROSION CAUSED BY INSULATING MATERIALS TEST METHODS 1 Scope This standard determines the ability of insulating
29、 materials to produce electrolytic corrosion on metals being in contact with them under the influence of electric stress, high humidity and elevated temperature. The effect of electrolytic corrosion is assessed in one test by using consecutively two methods: visual semi-quantitative method consistin
30、g in comparing visually the corrosion appearing on the anode and cathode metal strips, with those given in the reference figures. This method consists of the direct visual assessment of the degree of corrosion of two copper strips, acting as anode and cathode respectively, placed in contact with the
31、 tested insulating material under a d.c. potential difference at specified environmental conditions. The degree of corrosion is assessed by visually comparing the corrosion marks on the anode and cathode metal strips with those shown in the reference figures; quantitative method, which involves the
32、tensile strength measurement, carried out on the same anode and cathode metal strips after visual inspection. An additional quantitative test method for determining electrolytic corrosion, which involves tensile strength measurement of copper wire, is described in the informative Annex C. 2 Normativ

38、 a d.c. potential difference to two parallel copper strips 3 mm apart, acting as the anode and the cathode respectively. The insulating material under test (test specimen) is placed across these two strips. In order to obtain a good and uniform contact between the metal strips and the material under
39、 test, the test specimen is pressed to the strips by a cylindrical loading tube. 5 Test specimens 5.1 General The preparation of the specimens depends on the type of material and the form in which it is supplied. The shape and dimensions of the test specimen are shown in Figure 1. Procedures for the
40、 preparation of the test specimen are reported beneath (5.2 to 5.7). Dimensions in millimetres 4,0 0,1 40 110,0 0,5 Surface of contactIEC 122/07 Figure 1 Test specimen of rigid material, for example textile laminate EN 60426:2007 8 5.2 Cut surfaces of rigid materials (blocks, plates, sheets or semi-
41、finished materials) The test specimens shall be cut out or machined from the tested material to a thickness of 4 mm, by means of a dry method without the use of cutting oils or lubricants and without overheating or damaging them. It is recommended to take several test specimens from various layers o
42、f the product. It is permissible to use the test specimens of thickness smaller than 4 mm, but not smaller than 2 mm. The contact surface of the test specimen shall be smoothed using abrasive paper. Care should be taken to keep parallelism of the opposite surfaces of the test specimen, in order to a
43、ssure a good contact of the test specimen to the metal strips. The surface of contact should not show any flaws, cracks, inclusions or bubbles. The abrasive paper shall not contain any contaminations causing a bad corrosion index, for example halogen components. 5.3 Cast, moulding, injection and pre
44、ssed materials From insulating materials delivered in the form of liquid resin, moulding powder or granules, the test specimens shall be made in shapes and dimensions as shown in Figure 1. The specimens shall be made by casting or pressing in a special mould, following exactly the technological inst
45、ruction recommended by the manufacturer of the tested material. The test specimen and surface of contact shall be prepared as given in 5.2. 5.4 Cut surfaces of flexible films, foils and thin sheets Test specimens of these products shall be made up in layers to form small packs placed between suitabl
46、e holding plates of insulating material not causing electrolytic corrosion itself, for example polymethylmethacrylate (Plexiglas 2). The preferred thickness of holding plates is 1 mm 0,2 mm. The thickness of a pack should be approximately of 4 mm or 2 mm, depending on the thickness of the tested foi
47、ls. The value of 4 mm is recommended in the case of the single foil thickness being less than 2 mm and more than 0,5 mm, whereas that one of 2 mm is recommended if the single foil thickness is less than 0,5 mm. These test blocks shall be compressed with screws made of the same material as holding pl
48、ates and then machined to the appropriate shape as shown in Figure 2. The material to be tested should protrude 0,2 mm to 0,5 mm beyond the holding plates. 2Plexiglas is an example of a suitable product available commercially.
