Full title and description
Printed electronics - Part 204: Materials - Insulator ink - Measurement methods of properties of insulator inks and printed insulating layers. This international standard defines terms and specifies standard test and characterization methods for insulator inks (including dielectric inks) and for insulating layers produced from those inks intended for printed electronics applications.
Abstract
IEC 62899-204:2019 provides definitions and standardized measurement procedures to evaluate physical and electrical properties of insulator inks and the printed insulating layers made from them. The standard covers the preparation of test specimens and methods for assessing dielectric behaviour, electric strength, thickness, adhesion and other relevant properties needed for quality control and R&D in printed electronics.

Scope
This document is applicable to insulator inks and printed insulating layers that are made from insulator inks used for printed electronics. It defines terms and specifies standard methods for characterisation and evaluation of those inks and layers, enabling consistent measurement of electrical and physical properties needed for development, specification and quality control in printed-electronics manufacturing.
Key topics and requirements
- Definitions and terminology specific to insulator inks and printed insulating layers.
- Standard test methods for dielectric properties (relative permittivity, dissipation factor) and resistive properties.
- Electric strength and breakdown testing for printed insulating layers.
- Measurement of thickness, uniformity and surface quality of printed insulating films.
- Adhesion and mechanical integrity tests relevant to cured insulator layers.
- Requirements for specimen preparation, conditioning and reporting of test results to ensure repeatability.
- Normative references and cross-references to related IEC test standards and parts of the IEC 62899 series.
Normative references cited in the standard include IEC 60243 (electric strength of insulating materials), IEC 62631-2-1 (relative permittivity and dissipation factor measurement methods) and other parts of the IEC 62899 printed-electronics series.
Typical use and users
Typical users are manufacturers and formulators of insulator/dielectric inks, printed-electronics device designers and manufacturers, independent test laboratories, R&D teams developing printed insulating materials and component suppliers who need standardized methods for characterising and specifying insulating inks and printed dielectric layers. Quality assurance and regulatory teams in electronics manufacturing may also use this standard to define acceptance criteria.
