Printed electronics - Part 202-7: Materials - Printed film - Measurement of peel strength for printed layer on flexible substrate by 90° peel method

IEC 62899-202-7:2021(E) provides a test method to measure the peel strength of a printed layer on a flexible substrate. This method calls for peeling the flexible substrate instead of an additional metal electroplating on the printed layer. The method described in this document can be used to compare the peel strengths of the printed layers on the same flexible substrate and thickness conditions. It can be used when the adhesion between the printed layer and flexible substrate is weaker than any other interface between the printed layer and the adhesive, the adhesive and the panel.

FOREWORD
1) The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) is a worldwide organization for standardization comprising
all national electrotechnical committees (IEC National Committees). The object of IEC is to promote
international co-operation on all questions concerning standardization in the electrical and electronic fields. To
this end and in addition to other activities, IEC publishes International Standards, Technical Specifications,
Technical Reports, Publicly Available Specifications (PAS) and Guides (hereafter referred to as “IEC
Publication(s)”). Their preparation is entrusted to technical committees; any IEC National Committee interested
in the subject dealt with may participate in this preparatory work. International, governmental and non-
governmental organizations liaising with the IEC also participate in this preparation. IEC collaborates closely
with the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) in accordance with conditions determined by
agreement between the two organizations.
2) The formal decisions or agreements of IEC on technical matters express, as nearly as possible, an international
consensus of opinion on the relevant subjects since each technical committee has representation from all
interested IEC National Committees.
3) IEC Publications have the form of recommendations for international use and are accepted by IEC National
Committees in that sense. While all reasonable efforts are made to ensure that the technical content of IEC
Publications is accurate, IEC cannot be held responsible for the way in which they are used or for any
misinterpretation by any end user.
4) In order to promote international uniformity, IEC National Committees undertake to apply IEC Publications
transparently to the maximum extent possible in their national and regional publications. Any divergence
between any IEC Publication and the corresponding national or regional publication shall be clearly indicated in
the latter.
5) IEC itself does not provide any attestation of conformity. Independent certification bodies provide conformity
assessment services and, in some areas, access to IEC marks of conformity. IEC is not responsible for any
services carried out by independent certification bodies.
6) All users should ensure that they have the latest edition of this publication.
7) No liability shall attach to IEC or its directors, employees, servants or agents including individual experts and
members of its technical committees and IEC National Committees for any personal injury, property damage or
other damage of any nature whatsoever, whether direct or indirect, or for costs (including legal fees) and
expenses arising out of the publication, use of, or reliance upon, this IEC Publication or any other IEC
Publications.
8) Attention is drawn to the Normative references cited in this publication. Use of the referenced publications is
indispensable for the correct application of this publication.
9) Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this IEC Publication may be the subject of
patent rights. IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.

INTRODUCTION
A printed layer on a flexible substrate is widely employed as an electrode or interconnection
for flexible devices. An integral component of this conductive body of the devices is
conductive composite material and is commercialized as conductive ink.
A simple tape test method has been widely used for qualitative adhesion measurement, but it
cannot be used to measure strong adhesion between the printed layer and the flexible
substrate.
A conventional peel test method is widely used in the printed circuits industry to evaluate the
adhesion between a thin printed layer with dense microstructure and the flexible substrate.
Peel strength value can be measured after an additional metal electroplating process on a
thin printed layer to increase the printed layer thickness to provide a stable grip in an
adhesion testing machine. However, it is not suitable for testing a printed layer which has a
porous structure susceptible to contamination of the interface between the printed layer and
flexible substrate during the electroplating process.
Therefore, a quantitative and reliable adhesion test method is used to measure and
understand interfacial adhesion of the printed layer to the flexible substrate and its long-term
reliability.
In this document, a new standard test method to measure the peel strength of a printed layer
on a flexible substrate is proposed. This method calls for peeling the flexible substrate instead
of an additional metal electroplating on the printed layer. It is useful to monitor and compare
the thickness dependence of the peel strength of a layer on the same flexible substrate.

This part of IEC 62899 provides a test method to measure the peel strength of a printed layer
on a flexible substrate. This method calls for peeling the flexible substrate instead of an
additional metal electroplating on the printed layer. The method described in this document
can be used to compare the peel strengths of the printed layers on the same flexible substrate
and thickness conditions. It can be used when the adhesion between the printed layer and
flexible substrate is weaker than any other interface between the printed layer and the
adhesive, the adhesive and the panel.
