Plating coated component creep corrosion test at sulfur vapor atmosphere

Cloud computing and storage now are more important for people´s life. Data center set-up is more popular all over the world. For the cooling of the computing server, a lot of data center choose the natural air circulation method replacing traditional one to save the power consumption. So from the natural air circulation, more reliable issue will come from the quality of air depending on which place they set-up. As been known, sulfur gas in the air will result in the creep corrosion reaction with few element like Cu, Ni, Al, Fe, Ag at moist environment. As a result, the article will focus on the sulfur resistivity of the plating coated component at sulfur environment simulated with sulfur clay for 1000hrs test. Pure copper shot and different Au plating thickness ranging from gold flush then thicker will take into consideration. Tin coated material and passive component will also be involved in the study. Then we can know how to choose the proper component at different environment. We hope we can get more reliable component then obtain more stable quality of data center.
