→13.5.4 Corrosion Testing
The differences in the corrosive gas concentrations and the test durations are dependent on the end application of the contact components and the
assessment of the exposure parameters.
Battelle (the Battelle Institute) has, for different applications, defined four climate classes which reflect the corrosion behavior of porous electroplated gold surfaces. Such gold layers are often used in connectors for the telecommunications and information technology ''<xr id="tab:Classification of Corrosion Effects According to Battelle"/> (Table Tab. 13.5), (Fig. 13.14)''.
