29、ent2.3 FixtureContacts shall be placed in a suitable holding fixture of inert material, having the smallesthorizontal area necessary, and shall be held so as to maintain the measurement area in a verticalplane. The test fixture shall be constructed in such a manner to assure that the test samples sh

30、allnot be closer than 25 mm (1 in) from the wall of the desiccator and not closer that 76 mm (3 in)from the solution surface. Adjacent contacts shall not be closer than 10 mm (0.4 in) from eachother. The fixture shall not prohibit the measurement area from being exposed to the testenvironment. A mes

31、h support plate, if used, shall be constructed of nonabsorbing inert materialand cover no more than 50% of the cross-sectional area of the test chamber.3 Test specimen3.1 Preparation3.1.1 Prior to being inserted into the test chamber, contacts shall be prepared so that themeasurement areas may be ea

32、sily viewed through a microscope and exposed to the acid fumes.EIA-364-53BPage 53.1.2 Contacts shall be tested prior to assembly of shrouds, hoods, or other accessories. Duringthe preparation stage, care shall be taken not to touch or damage the measurement area.3.1.3 All socket contacts including t

33、ulip, box contacts and multiple tine contacts shall be openedto expose the measurement area; see figure 7. In case of multiple tine contacts, the number ofadjacent tines opened or removed shall be as shown in table 2.Table 2 - Tines to be opened or removedNumber of tines per contact Number of tines

34、to be openedor removed and disregarded21314252633.2 Cleaning3.2.1 Cleanliness is very important. Coatings or films on the contact may give false negatives byprotecting exposed base metals from the test reagents. False positive indications can also occurif plating salts or metal flakes are present an

35、d react with the reagents.3.2.2 Clean samples for 5 minutes in an ultrasonic cleaner or equivalent that contains a hot(65 C to 85 C) aqueous solution of a mildly alkaline (pH 7.5 to pH 10) detergent (such asMicroTMor SparkleenTM) or equivalent.NOTE If parts are straight off the plating line, one may

36、 use, instead of detergent, a 30second ultrasonic or equivalent degreasing in fresh, clean acetone, followeddirectly by 3.2.4 to remove traces of inorganic contaminants, such as platingsalts.3.2.3 After cleaning in accordance with 3.2.2, rinse samples thoroughly under warm running tapwater for at le

37、ast 15 seconds.3.2.4 Rinse samples in an ultrasonic cleaner or equivalent for 2 minutes in fresh deionized waterto remove the last detergent residues.3.2.5 Immerse samples in fresh methanol, 2-propanol, or acetone, and agitate ultrasonically orequivalent for at least 30 seconds in order to remove th

38、e water from the samples.EIA-364-53BPage 63.2.6 Remove and air dry samples until the chemical used in 3.2.5 has completely evaporated. Ifan air blast is used as an aid to drying, the air shall be oil free, clean and dry.3.2.7 Do not touch measurement area of samples after cleaning.3.2.8 After cleani

39、ng, samples shall be visually inspected under 10X magnification for evidenceof particulate matter remaining on the surface. If particulates remain on the surface, samplesshall be recleaned per 3.2.1 through 3.2.7.3.2.9 Contacts shall be placed in a suitable holding fixture; see 2.3.3.2.10 Materials

40、that absorb vapors (e.g., paper tags, string, tape, etc.) shall be removed from thesamples prior to cleaning and placing samples into the desiccator.4 Test procedureCAUTION -Perform all work in an exhaust hood since the vapors given off are toxic.Chemical goggles completely enclosing eyes shall be w

41、orn. Normalprecautions in handling corrosive acids should be observed. It isrecommended that the exhaust hood be of such a design as to minimizetransverse air currents to prevent purging of the desiccator of the acidfumes during the test.4.1 The desiccator and test samples shall be in an environment

42、 with a relative humidity less than60% and a temperature of 23 C 2 C (73 F 4 F) during desiccator equalization and duringinsertion and removal of the samples into the desiccator.4.2 Prior to each test, desiccators, sample chambers and other equipment shall be thoroughlycleaned and dried to remove an

43、y contaminant or residue remaining from past use.4.3 Place in the desiccator 50 ml to 100 ml of acid per liter of desiccator volume. Each test shallrequire fresh unused acid. If support plate is to be used, it shall also be placed in the desiccator atthis time.4.4 Allow the desiccator to stand for 3

44、0 minutes 5 minutes at 23 C 2 C (73 F 4 F)(closed desiccator).EIA-364-53BPage 74.5 Place fixture with samples on the inside rim of the desiccator and exposed for 75 minutes 5 minutes at 23 C 2 C (73 F 4 F). The lid shall be removed as briefly as possible wheninserting test samples.4.6 The fixture wi

45、th the contacts shall then be removed and immediately placed in an aircirculating oven for 10 minutes to 15 minutes at 125 C 5 C (257 F 9 F).4.7 The fixture shall be removed from the oven and allowed to cool to room ambient. Contactsshall be examined within 1 hour of exposure. Each measurement area

46、shall be examined forcorrosion products at 10X magnification. Proper illumination is critical in the examinationprocess. A recommended illumination technique is the use of a collimated incandescent lightsource at an oblique angle 15 to 30 to the measurement surface.5 Details to be specifiedThe follo
