Storage & Handling
The un-mounted storage life of a leaded ceramic capacitor is dependent upon storage and atmospheric conditions as
well as packaging materials. While the ceramic chips enveloped under the epoxy coating themselves are quite robust
inmostenvironments,solderabilityofthewireleadonthenalepoxy-coatedproduct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 and exposure to direct sunlight – reels may soften or warp, and tape peel force may increase.
KEMET recommends storing the un-mounted capacitors in their original packaging, in a location away from direct sunlight,
and where the temperature and relative humidity do not exceed 40 degrees centigrade and 70% respectively. For optimum
solderability, capacitor stock should be used promptly, preferably within 18 months of receipt. For applications requiring
pre-tinningofcomponents,storagelifemaybeextendedifsolderabilityisveried.Beforecleaning,bondingormoldingthese
devices, it is important to verify that your process does not affect product quality and performance. KEMET recommends
testing and evaluating the performance of a cleaned, bonded or molded product prior to implementing and/or qualifying any
of these processes.
