24、EN 610, Tin and tin alloys Ingot tin 3 Terms and definitions For the purposes of this document, the following terms and definitions apply. 3.1 unalloyed tin coating layer of pure tin on the surface of tinned wire 3.2 alloyed tin coating diffusion layer of copper and tin formed at the copper wire and

25、 tin coating interface during tinning and subsequent drawing and annealing processes 3.3 total tin coating sum of the thicknesses of the unalloyed tin coating and the alloyed tin coating 3.4 measuring area area of the surface over which a single measurement is made 4 Thickness of the unalloyed tin c

26、oating 4.1 Principle Anodic dissolution of a well-defined area of the unalloyed coating using a suitable electrolyte, followed by detection of the virtually complete dissolution of the unalloyed coating by a rapid change in cell voltage. DIN EN 13603:2013-08 EN 13603:2013 (E) 5 Calculation of the un

27、alloyed coating thickness from the quantity of electricity (in coulombs) used, which can in turn be calculated from: a) the time interval between the start of the test and the first rapid change of cell voltage, if it is conducted at constant current density; or b) the integrated quantity of electri

28、city used in dissolving the unalloyed coating. 4.2 Reagents and materials 4.2.1 Electrolyte, either a hydrochloric acid electrolyte or an electrolyte recommended by the instrument manufacturer. For the hydrochloric acid electrolyte, dilute 170 ml of hydrochloric acid (HCl), = 1,18 g/ml, to 1 000 ml

29、with deionised water. NOTE The unalloyed tin coating dissolves anodically at an efficiency of nearly 100 %; for determination of the electrolyte efficiency, see 4.5.6. WARNING Hydrochloric acid causes burns and is irritating to the respiratory system. Avoid breathing the vapour and prevent contact w

30、ith eyes and skin. This electrolyte dissolves tin coatings at very low cell voltages at which there is no anodic attack on the substrates when they are exposed at the end of the test. 4.2.2 Tin, tin grade in accordance with EN 610. 4.3 Apparatus Suitable instruments may be constructed from readily a

31、vailable components. Alternatively, a proprietary instrument may be used. 4.3.1 Direct reading instruments Proprietary direct reading instruments are available for use with electrolytes recommended by the manufacturer. The calculation of thickness of tin coating from current density is made electron

32、ically. The instrument shall have some means of indicating when the unalloyed tin coating has been fully removed. 4.3.2 Other instruments Instruments other than proprietary direct reading instruments record the quantity of electricity, in coulombs, used in dissolving the unalloyed coating from the m

33、easuring area, usually in arbitrary units, from which the thickness can be calculated using factors or tables. 4.3.3 Electrolytic cell The electrolytic cell consists of a container for the electrolyte, a cathode and an anode, which is the test sample. If the container is made of metal, such as stain

34、less steel, the container can serve as the cathode. If the container is made of insulating material, a separate cathode is required. Also required are a device for supporting the appropriate length of the test sample and an agitation mechanism. Depending on the wire diameter, the test sample may be

35、a straight length of wire or, if necessary to obtain sufficient surface area for smaller diameter wires, a holding device such as that shown schematically in Figure 1 is required. A magnetic stirrer or similar system shall be used to provide agitation. DIN EN 13603:2013-08 EN 13603:2013 (E) 6 Key 1

37、igure 1 Alternative method for supporting fine wire or wire which cannot be straightened 4.4 Preparation of the test piece Select a suitable length of test sample in order to provide the appropriate test piece area for exposure to the electrolyte. If necessary, clean the test surface with a suitable

38、 organic solvent (see 4.5.4.5). Care should be taken to avoid removal of metal during the cleaning operation. 4.5 Procedure for determining the thickness of unalloyed tin coatings 4.5.1 General If commercial equipment is used, follow the manufacturers instructions with respect to the operating proce

39、dure for measurement, the electrolyte and, if necessary, calibration. Appropriate attention shall be given to the factors listed in 4.5.4. The performance of the instrument shall be checked using a reference specimen of pure tin wire. A tin grade in accordance with EN 610 shall be used. The test sha

40、ll be carried out in accordance with 4.5.6. If the instrument readings or the calculation of K give an electrolytic efficiency of equal to or greater than 98 %, the instrument may be used without further adjustment. Otherwise, the cause of discrepancy shall be remedied. Proprietary instruments shall

41、 be calibrated in accordance with the manufacturers instructions. DIN EN 13603:2013-08 EN 13603:2013 (E) 7 4.5.2 Determination of measuring area For the determination of the measuring area, the length L of the test piece in millimetres shall be determined with an accuracy of 1 % and the diameter d o

42、f the test piece for wires with a nominal diameter of 0,6 mm shall be determined with an accuracy of 1 % and for wires with a nominal diameter of 0,6 mm with an accuracy of 0,5 %. The measuring area A in square centimetres is given by the Formula (1): 100 L d= A(1) NOTE An exact area of stripping is

43、 necessary for accuracy and the main source of error is due to the meniscus and current field at the electrolyte surface. 4.5.3 Electrolysis (Dissolution of the unalloyed tin coating) The electrolyte (4.2.1) and test piece shall be introduced into the cell so that a known area is exposed to the elec

44、trolyte. Efforts shall be made to ensure that no gas bubbles occur on the measuring area by use of the agitation mechanism. The electrical connections shall be made and the agitator operated. Electrolysis shall be continued until dissolution of the unalloyed tin coating is complete, as indicated by

45、a sharp change in the anode potential or cell voltage, or by the operation of the automatic cut-out. After completion of the test, the test piece shall be removed from the cell, rinsed with water and examined to ensure that complete removal of the unalloyed tin coating has occurred over the measurin

46、g area (see 4.5.4.9). 4.5.4 Factors affecting the measuring accuracy 4.5.4.1 Coating thickness The optimum accuracy is achieved with coating thicknesses in the range 0,2 m up to 50 m. 4.5.4.2 Current variation For instruments using the constant current and time measuring technique, current variation

47、 will cause errors. For instruments using a current-time integrator, too large a change in current can change the anode current efficiency or interfere with the end-point, causing an error. 4.5.4.3 Area variation The accuracy of the thickness measurement will be no better than the accuracy to which

48、the measuring area is known. Area variations due to electrolyte level (excessive agitation), can lead to measurement errors. In some cases it can be advantageous to measure the length after electrolysis is complete and re-calculate the area. 4.5.4.4 Agitation Agitation (i.e. the rate of stirring) shall be sufficient to remove any gas bubbles formed during the test, which can adhere to the test piece or cathode. Excessive agitation shall be avoided to prevent interference with the length of test piece su
