This test method was technically approved by the Global Flat Panel Display Committee and is the direct responsibility of the Japanese FPD Color Filter & Optical Elements Committee. Current edition approved by the Japanese Regional Standards Committee on November 24, 2004. Initially available at www.semi.org January 2005; to be published March 2005. Originally published in 1999; previously published in February 1999.

This standard establishes two methods for evaluating the chemical resistance of FPD color filters. One of these methods is qualitative, the other is quantitative. These methods may be used by suppliers and users of color filters for FPD applications, for use in judging quality of production and developing samples. These methods test the chemical resistance of color filters by utilizing chemicals and conditions typically employed in FPD manufacturing. These methods are destructive.
