Salt atmosphere is a destructive, accelerated stress that simulates the effects of severe seacoast atmosphere on all exposed surfaces. Such stressing and post-stress testing determine the resistance of solid-state devices to corrosion and may be performed on commercial and industrial product in molded or hermetic packages. The stress conditions and test criteria are specified in the military standards listed below. The stresses and tests within these standards are similar and can be used for all package types.
