TEST METHOD FOR CHEMICAL DURABILITY OF FLAT PANEL
DISPLAY GLASS SUBSTRATES
This test method was technically reapproved by the Global Flat Panel Display Committee and is the direct
responsibility of the Japanese FPD Materials and Components Committee. Current edition approved by the
Japanese Regional Standards Committee on April 28, 2003. Initially available at www.semi.org June 2003;
to be published July 2003. Originally published in 1995.
1 Purpose
1.1 This test procedure evaluates quantitatively the
durability of flat panel display (FPD) glass substrates
using reagents employed in FPD production processes.
2 Scope
2.1 This standard may be used by vendors and/or
buyers of glass substrates for FPD.
2.2 This standard defines three methods for testing
chemical durability of various flat panel display
substrates: (Method A) Weight Loss, (Method B) Step
Measurement Using Profilometry, and (Method C)
Surface Haze. Each method provides a measure of the
amount of material that is removed from a substrate
during a controlled chemical reaction sequence. This
sequence is nominally identical for each method.
NOTICE: This standard does not purport to address
safety issues, if any, associated with its use. It is the
responsibility of the users of this standard to establish
appropriate safety and health practices and determine
the applicability of regulatory or other limitations prior
to use.
3 Limitations
3.1 These tests are not applicable to calculating
variations in chemical durability in local areas within a
substrate.
3.2 The calculations assume that all edges are
nominally straight. They do not include adjustments for
corner cuts.
3.3 The chemicals used in these practices are
potentially harmful and should be handled in a fume
hood with the utmost care at all times. Warning -
Hydro- fluoric acid solutions are particularly hazardous.
Precaution: They should not be used by anyone who is
not familiar with the specific preventive measures and
first aid treatments given in the appropriate Material
Safety Data Sheet.

method to measure depths of etching by comparing the
differences in heights between etched and non-etched
parts of a specimen measured by profilometry or an
equivalent method.

which automatically measures total transmittance, diffuse
transmittance, and haze values.
7 Reagents and Materials
7.1 No specific requirement is defined for the reagents
and materials. As long as the test conditions are
reported with the result, any combination of chemical
reagents with any concentration can be used for the test.
The test conditions should reflect actual process
conditions which are specific for the Flat Panel Display
manufacturers. Some reagents suggested for the test are
provided in Related Information 1 as a reference.
7.2 This standard may involve hazardous materials,
operations, and equipment. This standard does not
purport to address all of the safety problems associated
with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this
standard to establish appropriate safety and health
practices and determine the applicability of regulatory
limitations prior to use.
8 Sample Preparation
8.1 Prepare at least a specimen from a lot of the
substrates to be tested. The specimen is a rectangular
plate about 25 × 50 mm edge length for Methods A and
B, or 40 × 40 mm edge length for Method C.
8.1.1 If they are not already chamfered, specimen
edges and corners should be chamfered slightly to
remove chips and prevent cracking. If repeated tests are
expected, prepare an appropriate quantity of test
specimens.
8.2 Measure edge lengths of the test specimens, and
calculate total surface area, A:
A
=
(
L
×
W
×
2
)
+
{ (
L
+
W
)
×
T

)}
(

where
L
=
one edge length of test specimen in cm,
W
=
adjacent edge length of test specimen in cm,
T
=
thickness of test specimen in cm, and
A
=
total surface area of test specimen in cm
2
.
8.3 Clean all test specimens by a method appropriate
for the history of the material. The cleaning method
should not cause any corrosion. Clean the specimens by
an appropriate neutral or alkali detergent for
approximately 10 minutes using an ultrasonic bath.
8.3.1 Rinse them continuously in a stream of deionized
water, having a conductivity of less than 1 µ S/cm, for 1
minute using the ultrasonic bath. Finally, dry them.
8.4 Place all specimens on a clean heat resistant sample
holder. Dry the specimens at 140 ± 10° C for 30
minutes.
8.5 Place all specimens in a desiccator containing silica
gel or calcium sulfate and cool them, for a minimum of
1 hour, to room temperature.
8.6 If Method A will be used, weigh the test specimen
to 0.1 mg or 0.01 mg as required using the balance.
8.7 If Method B will be used, coat about a half portion
of each test specimen by an appropriate coating
SEMI D10-95 © SEMI 1995, 2003 3
material durable to the test media and conditions. (Wax,
varnish, epoxy resins, adhesive tape, etc., may be used.)
9 Procedure
9.1 Test Specimen Processing
9.1.1 Prepare cylindrical wide-mouthed sealable
vessels, sample holders, etc., made of materials which
do not react with the test medium under the test
conditions. Use a reaction vessel in which the test
specimen, while on the sample holder, is sufficiently
immersed in the required volume of test reagent.
9.1.2 Place the test specimen on the sample holder with
spacing of 1 to 2 cm between the test specimen and
bottom of the empty vessel. When a part of the
specimen is coated by protective material, position the
sample so that its coated portion faces down. The test
specimen may be leaned against the vessel wall if the
test is to be done in relatively brief or slightly corrosive
conditions, or in concentrated, extremely corrosive
media.
9.1.3 Pour the test reagents into the reaction vessel.
Volume of the test medium shall be 5 to 10 ml per cm
2
of specimen surface area. Preheat the test medium to
the specified test temperature.
9.1.4 Place the reaction vessel in the preheated shaker
bath with specified shaking stroke and frequency. Close
the reaction vessel loosely, and expose the specimen at
specified temperature for specified time.
9.1.5 At the completion of specified test time,
immediately remove the reaction vessel from the shaker
bath. Remove the test specimens from the reaction
vessel using soft forceps, and rinse the specimens
immediately by deionized water at appropriate
temperature. When the specimen temperature is high
following this process, rinse the specimens completely
with water of gradually decreasing temperature. Finish
it by deionized water at room temperature. Less caution
is required when the reaction temperature is low. A
synthetic rubber or plastic glove may be used instead of
forceps if sufficient care is taken. In all cases, the
surface of the test specimen shall not be scrubbed.
Never dry the test specimen during this operation.
Generation of cracks or chips due to thermal or
mechanical shocks should be avoided.
9.1.6 For Method B samples, remove coating by
appropriate non-corrosive method, and clean samples
again. In this case, residue from the coating material
should not contaminate the overall test specimen.
9.1.7 Place the test specimens on a clean heat-resistant
sample holder, and dry them at 140 ± 10° C for 30
minutes.
9.1.8 Place the specimens in the desiccator and allow
them to cool to room temperature.
9.2 Measurement Method
9.2.1 Method A (Weight Change)
9.2.1.1 Weigh the test specimen to 0.1 mg or 0.01 mg
as required, using the balance.
9.2.1.2 Calculate the areal weight change with the
following equation.
W

where
W

as calculated in 8.2, and
W
A
= the areal weight change, in mg cm

.
NOTE 2: A negative result indicates a real weight loss, and a
positive result indicates a real weight gain.

the test sample by the following equation.

NOTE 3: A negative result indicates loss of material, and a
positive result indicates material gain.
9.2.1.4 When density of the materials is unknown, use
the value measured by the method described in ASTM
C729.
9.2.2 Method B (Profilometry)
9.2.2.1 Measure the height, H, in µ m, of the step
between the unetched (coated) section and the etched
(uncoated) section by a calibrated surface profilometer.
Trace length shall be between 2 and 4 mm, with the
boundary between the two sections located near the
center of the trace.
Repeat this measurement at least 3 times.
