Introduction Electrodeposited silver and silver alloy coatings are often specified for their extremely good electrical conductivity, but corrosion protection is

29、 often an additional requirement for electrical, electronic and other applications. In many conditions of service, sulfide films may form on the coatings, increasing the contact resistance at the silver electroplated mating surface and making them unsuitable for use in low-voltage electronic circuit

30、s. Sulfide films are not especially detrimental to other electronic applications where higher voltage and higher contact pressures are used, because the films are not completely insulating. Because the appearance and serviceability of electroplated silver coatings depend on the condition of the basi

31、s material, agreement should be reached between interested parties that the surface finish and roughness of the basis material are satisfactory for electroplating. Electroplated silver coatings have been used as bearing surfaces for many decades and are particularly useful where the load-bearing sur

32、faces are not well lubricated. Electroplated silver coatings have largely replaced electroplated gold coatings on metallic lead frames, the devices that support the majority of silicon chips. 4 DIN EN ISO 4521:2009-01 EN ISO 4521:2008 (E) WARNING This International Standard may not be compliant with

33、 some countries health and safety legislations and calls for the use of substances and/or procedures that may be injurious to health if adequate safety measures are not taken. This International Standard does not address any health hazards, safety or environmental matters and legislations associated

34、 with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this International Standard to establish appropriate health, safety and environmentally acceptable practices, and take suitable actions to comply with any national and international regulations. Compliance with this International Standard does n

35、ot, in itself, confer immunity from legal obligations. 1 Scope This International Standard specifies requirements for electroplated silver and silver alloy coatings for electrical, electronic and other engineering applications, including test methods. Engineering applications are defined as those in

36、 which the coating essentially serves a non-decorative purpose. Although this International Standard does not specify the condition, finish or surface roughness of the basis material prior to electroplating, the appearance and serviceability of electroplated silver and silver alloy coatings depend o

37、n the condition of the basis material. It is essential that the purchaser specifies the surface finish and roughness of the basis material in order to conform to the product requirements. This International Standard does not apply to coatings on screw threads or to coatings on sheet, strip or wire i
