What is BS IEC 62899-201-2 - Measurement methods for stretchable substrates about?
BS IEC 62899-201-2 is a part of the BS IEC 62899-20X multi-series that relates mainly to measurement methods for materials of printed electronics.
BS IEC 62899-201-2 defines measurement methods for the properties of stretchable substrates to evaluate stretchable functional layers (conductive, semiconducting, and insulating) formed by printing technologies. If the same types of materials as the substrates are used for the cover lay film, they are also subjected to the measurement defined in BS IEC 62899-201-2.
Note: BS IEC 62899-201-2 does not define the required characteristics of the stretchable substrate.
Who is BS IEC 62899-201-2 - Measurement methods for stretchable substrates for?
BS IEC 62899-201-2 on measurement methods for properties of stretchable substrates is useful for:
- Semiconductor foundries
- Graphic designers of electronic devices
- Research and development departments
- Quality control personnel
- Testing and inspection personnel
Why should you use BS IEC 62899-201-2 - Measurement methods for stretchable substrates?
Stretchable substrates handled by BS IEC 62899-201-2 apply to substrates subjected to repeated bending with wiring elements demanding a high level of performance, such as fabric integrated wearable devices or skin patchable devices.
BS IEC 62899-201-2 provides test methods to characterize (pre-qualify) the substrates intended to be used for printing conductors and insulators to manufacture stretchable layers or structures.
Overall, the test methods of BS IEC 62899-201-2 help you identify and integrate stretchable substrates into suitable devices.
