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

)
+
{ (

where
L

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

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
A

where
W

as calculated in 8.2, and
W

= 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.

NOTE 4: A negative result indicates loss of material, and

9.2.3 Method C (Surface Haze)
9.2.3.1 Measure total transmittance, Tt, and diffuse
transmittance, Td, and calculate the haze value from the
following expression:
H =
Td
Tt
× 100 (5)
where
Tt = total transmittance,
Td = diffuse transmittance, and
H = haze value in %.
10 Reporting Results
10.1 Report date and time of test, ambient temperature,
test operator, test conditions (reagent and concentration,
volume of the test medium, test temperature, test time,
stroke length, and frequency of shaking), specimen size
and total surface area, specimen cleaning method, and
the following:
10.1.1 Method A — The areal weight change (W
A
), the
initial weight of the specimen (W
1
), the density of the
substrate material (D), and calculated depth of
corrosion (P).
10.1.1.1 Method B — Penetration depth (P).
10.1.1.2 Method C — The average, maximum and
minimum value of total transmittance (Tt), diffuse
transmittance (Td), and haze value (H).
10.2 Remarks — In a typical test, one specimen is
immersed in an unused medium of specified volume in
a reaction vessel during a specified time. However, as
long as various conditions are described in the report,
even irregular methods may be allowed. Repetitive
usage of a medium may not markedly affect the result
when the test is done in relatively brief or slightly
corrosive conditions, or in concentrated, extremely
corrosive media.
