Abstract
Corrosion protection in electronics require unique solutions. Complexity, miniturization, airborne corrosives, impressed currents, etc. influence the occurance of corrosion. Vapor phase inhibitors have been proven effective in analogous applications to those in electronics. We feel that these analogies are significant and vapor phase inhibitors should provide a degree of corrosion protection to all the metals found in electronic systems. Three experimental procedures were used to test a large array of corrosive conditions. The first, uses a high humidity environment with uncharged boards. The second, utilizes a high humidity with boards charged with 9VDC. And finally, the last experimental procedure exposes uncharged circuit boards to an environment polluted with H<sub>2</sub>S. Based on the test results the following conclusions were made: 1.) Cyclic amine fatty acid salts and alcoholic amine salts enhance corrosion of metals used in the fabrication of electronic components. 2.) Triazoles, cyclic amine nitrate salts and cyclic amine salts provided protection of selected metals used in the fabrication of electronic components. 3.) The mixtures of vapor phase inhibitors tested provided protection of a cross section of metals used in the fabrication of electronic components under a wide variety of corrosive environments.
