The process must be managed by monitoring the significant parameters as aluminium and polluant… 11.2.4 The purity of the rinsing water shall be determined by conductivity/resistivity measurements. 11.2.5 When required for adhesive bonding, the test to the relevant bonding standard shall be carried out to ensure that the process has been correctly applied. 11.2.6 Each pickling process must be characterized by its specific etching rate range. All pickling process must not lead to localized attack. 11.2.7 The etching rate of the complete sequence of operations must be periodically measured to ensure the control of the process. 12 Quality assurance 12.1 Approval of the processor |
