Storage & Handling
Ceramic chip capacitors should be stored in normal working environments. While the chips themselves are quite robust in
other environments, solderability will be degraded by exposure to high temperatures, high humidity, corrosive atmospheres,
and long term storage. In addition, packaging materials will be degraded by high temperature – reels may soften or warp
and tape peel force may increase. KEMET recommends that maximum storage temperature not exceed 40ºC and maximum
storage humidity not exceed 70% relative humidity. Temperature uctuations should be minimized to avoid condensation on
the parts and atmospheres should be free of chlorine and sulfur bearing compounds. For optimized solderability chip stock
should be used promptly, preferably within 1.5 years of receipt.
