MIL-STD 883E Notice 4, Method 2015.13
Polyimide labels (kapton label) materials with specific resistance to solvents
Purpose: To verify that the markings will not become illegible on the component parts when subjected to solvents. The solvents will not cause deleterious, mechanical or electrical damage, or deterioration of the materials or finishes.
Solvent Solutions: The solvent solutions used in this test shall consist of the following:
- One part by volumeof an aliphatic alcohol and/or aliphatic ester, USP grade or better
- Three parts by volume of mineral spirits in accordance with A_A-2904, type ii, previously designated as TT-T-291, type ii, grade A, or three partsd by volume of a mixture of 80 percent by volume kerosene and 20 percent by volume ethylbenzene.
- A semiaqueous or nonaqueous based organic solvent e.g.., a terpene or heterocyclic compund.
- This solvent has been deleted. When a suitable replacement for this solvent has been found, it will be added as solution c.
- 42 parts by volume of deionized water.
- 1 part by volume of propylene glycol monomethyl ether.
- 1 part by volume of momethanolamine or equivilant inorganic base to achieve th same pH.
