class=\"wp-caption-text\">Damaged electronic plug made of PA6\/GF30 <i>IKV<\/i><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h3>Problem definition<\/h3>\n<p>The term &#8220;blister effect&#8221; describes the phenomenon known in the industry of bubbles forming on plastic PCB connectors, which can occur during automated soldering. In some cases, the effect can be tolerated to a certain extent. However, if it is accompanied by a major loss of dimensional accuracy, in the worst case entire assemblies can become rejects. This example deals with such a case of serial damage, in which the blister effect meant that the housing covers of the assemblies could no longer be fitted properly.   <\/p>\n<h3>Methodology: Structural analysis of affected plugs<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>Macroscopic and microscopic defect image documentation<\/li>\n<li>Thin section preparation of previously embedded plugs<\/li>\n<li>Light microscopic examination of the thin sections in bright field<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<hr>\n<h3>Result: Processing errors in the injection molding process<\/h3>\n<p>The affected plugs show bubble-shaped bulges on the surface. At higher magnifications, insufficient surface molding becomes visible, which indicates that the process temperature level is too low. In the component cross-section  <b> <\/b>nest-like cavities appear within the connector, which are cavities caused by the manufacturing process. The high temperatures involved in machine soldering can cause existing molecular orientations in the component to relax, resulting in the delamination of existing surface layers and the formation of the blister effect. <\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_2722\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-2722\"

However, due to new geometries and areas of application, this can no longer be completely ruled out nowadays.

In addition to short-term loads, the components can also be subjected to long-term loads.

boards used in automotive headlights were provided with silicone optics using an LSR injection molding process. Despite constant process parameters, detachment of the silicone component in the area of the LED chip occurred on certain PCB batches, which meant that the desired light scattering was no longer achieved. In addition, cloudy streaks were sometimes observed in the silicone optics. Appropriate investigations should help to determine the cause of the detachments.   <\/p>\n<h3>Methodology: Microscopic examinations<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>Macroscopic and microscopic defect image documentation<\/li>\n<li>Laser confocal microscopic examination of conspicuous areas<\/li>\n<li>Field emission scanning electron microscopic (FESEM) examination of cross-sections through the damaged area of affected lenses in combination with energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<hr>\n<h3>Result: Impurities and batch-dependent material fluctuations in the LED boards<\/h3>\n<p>In the area of the detachments, foreign particles were detected on exposed components both on the silicone optics and on the circuit boards. Fluid-like contamination was observed in the immediate vicinity of the LED chips. Cloudy streaks in the silicone optics obviously have their origin on the LED board due to the course of the streaks. Light microscopic examinations of other LED boards showed contamination on new parts as a result of inadequate transport protection.   <\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_2752\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-2752\" src=\"https:\/\/ikv-aachen.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/IKV-KAP-Praxisbeispiel-LED-Optiken-Querschliff-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"847\" height=\"565\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ikv-aachen.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/IKV-KAP-Praxisbeispiel-LED-Optiken-Querschliff-1.jpg 847w, https:\/\/ikv-aachen.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/IKV-KAP-Praxisbeispiel-LED-Optiken-Querschliff-1-748x499.jpg 748w, https:\/\/ikv-aachen.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/IKV-KAP-Praxisbeispiel-LED-Optiken-Querschliff-1-768x512.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 847px) 100vw, 847px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Transverse micrograph through chip (FESEM) <i>IKV<\/i><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>The streaking probably takes place during the injection molding process and is probably due to an interaction between the silicone compound and the embedding compound of the LED chips The EDX examination confirmed the use of different materials in the area of the LED chips.

Germanium and silicon were used in the inconspicuous batch, while the batch with detachments was made of silicon and magnesium.
