top of the compound before immersing the disks or panels. Completely immerse the disks or panels vertically in the
compound for one minute, then remove one at a time at a rate of 4 inches per minute. After removal, condition in a
vertical position for 24 hours in a draft-, dust-, and fumefree atmosphere.
4.6 Test methods. Tests shall be conducted in accordance with the conditions specified in 4.2. 4.6.1
Acid salt fog protection. 4.6.1.1 Conditioning of compound sample. Fill a wide mouth, quart jar with 800 ml
of the compound, seal, and expose to the following cycle four times without physical disturbance of the compound:
eight hours at 130o ± 2oF followed by sixteen hours at -40o ± 2oF. At the end of this cyclic exposure, allow the
contents of the sealed jar to remain at 75o ± 5oF for 24 hours. 4.6.1.2 Test solution. The spray test solution
shall consist of a solution made by adding 2 ml of sulfurous acid (6.4 percent assay as SO2) to each liter of
synthetic seawater. Prepare the synthetic seawater by adding 50 grams of sodium chloride (NaCl); 22 grams of
magnesium chloride (MgC12.6H2O); 3.2 grams of calcium chloride (CaC12.2H2O); and 8.0 grams of sodium sulfate
(Na2SO4) to a liter of distilled or demineralized water. Use one liter of fresh test solution for each cycle.
Measure the pH of the test solution. If the pH is not between 3.3 and 3.5, additional acid or synthetic seawater
must be added to adjust the pH to this range.
MIL-PRF-81309F 4.6.1.3 Test procedure. The apparatus used in the test shall conform to Figures 1,
2, and 3. Prepare the test disks as specified in 4.5, using the conditioned compound in 4.6.1.1. Hang the disks
vertically and dry for 24 hours under standard laboratory conditions. Insert the specimens into the turntable,
start the turntable, and regulate the airflow to the nozzle to effect a fine spray. The pickup tube supplying the
nozzle shall have an ID of 1 mm. At the end of approximately 2 minutes of spraying, fill each aluminum cup
approximately one third full with ice and place on top of the disks to cause a fine condensation to form on the
surface of the disks. Continue spraying for one hour. The rate of flow shall be approximately 1500 ml/hour. During
this time, to avoid runoff washing over the test specimens, excessive condensation shall not be allowed to
accumulate on the OUTSIDE of the aluminum cups. At the end of the hour, stop the spray, remove the aluminum cups,
remove the jar from under the turntable, and allow the disks to dry at room temperature for 3 hours. Start another
cycle with fresh test solution. Conduct two cycles in one day. After the required number of cycles, clean the
disks in mineral spirits, conforming to MIL-PRF-680, then examine for any visible corrosion. 4.6.2
Application. For a Class 1 compound, place three ounces in a capped 4-ounce product jar conforming to SAE-AS22805.
Test Class 2 compounds as received. Condition the containers for 20 hours at 40°F. For a Class 1 compound, remove
product jar and contents from the cold chamber, immediately attach a spray device conforming to SAE-AS22805 that
has been conditioned at room temperature and attempt to spray the contents of the product jar. For Class 2
compounds, remove the self-pressurized container from the cold chamber and attempt to spray the contents. The
compound passes the test if it can be satisfactorily sprayed. In addition, the applied compound shall not exhibit
froth, bubbling, or excessive runoff and shall readily wet the surfaces of test panels prepared as in 4.5.
4.6.3 Compatibility with MIL-PRF-32033 and MIL-L-87177. Combine 5 milliliters (ml) of the compound and 15 ml of
lubricating oil conforming to MIL-PRF-32033 in a 40 ml coneshaped centrifuge tube. Combine 15 milliliters (ml) of
the compound and 15 ml of lubricant conforming to MIL-L-87177 in another 40 ml cone-shaped centrifuge tube. Shake
by hand until the mixture appears homogeneous. Place the tubes in a beaker and heat in an explosive proof oven at
170° ± 2°F for 15 minutes. There shall be no sedimentation or evidence of chemical precipitation or reaction
immediately after the 15-minute period at the elevated temperature or after 24 hours at 72° ± 4°F. A slight
separation of liquid is acceptable.
MIL-PRF-81309F 4.6.4 Compatibility with polyimide,
polyalkene, PVC and PTFE wiring insulation. Approximately 24 inches (61 cm) of wire conforming to MIL-W-81381/11,
MIL-W-81044, MILW-5086, and MIL-W-81822/6 (1), shall be formed into four separate coils. Place each coil in a
4-ounce (118 ml) wide mouth jar. Add enough corrosion preventive compound to the jar to completely cover the coil
of wire. Cap the jar and store it at room temperature for 14 days. Repeat this procedure using distilled water as
the test medium. At the end of the storage period, remove the coil and rinse thoroughly with tap water at room
temperature. Suspend the coil and allow it to drain until completely dry. Each wire shall be wrapped tightly
around a 0.125-inch mandrel and unwrapped slowly, noting the appearance and number of any cracks in the
insulation. The wire shall meet the requirements specified in Table I. The wire shall be immersed in a 5 percent
by weight sodium chloride solution and subjected to a one-minute
dielectric test of 2,500 volts (rms). 4.6.5 Corrosivity test. 4.6.5.1 Preparation of specimens.

4.6.5.2 Test procedure. Polish three specimens of each of the above metals to remove pits, burrs, and
irregularities from all faces and edges. Finish the panels on both sides and clean as specified in 4.5. After
weighing, place three specimens of the same metal in a 4-ounce screw cap jar with minimal contact between the
metal specimens. Place the specimens on one of their narrow ends. Cover the specimens with enough compound so that
the tops of the specimens are at least 1/4-inch below the surface of the compound. Place the sealed jar in an oven
at 130° ± 2°F for 7 days. Upon completion of the test, remove any loose corrosion products from the specimens by
cleaning as specified in 4.5. Reweigh the specimens and calculate the weight loss or gain in milligrams per square
centimeter. 4.6.6 Effect on acrylic plastic and polycarbonate. Using ASTM-F484, test the effects of the
corrosion preventive compound on acrylic plastic (MIL-PRF-5425, Finish A) and polycarbonate (SAE-AMS-P-83310).
Test the compound by applying it to a 0.7 in. by 0.7 in. flannel swatch positioned on a loaded specimen
immediately over the fulcrum point. After 30 minutes, examine the specimen. Crazing, cracking or other attack is
not acceptable. 4.6.7 Effect on electronic components. Connect a pair of electrical connectors,
MS3116-16-26S and MS3112-16-26P. Determine the resistance using a Wheatstone Bridge or appropriate measuring
device. Record the value for each mated pair of pins and between selected adjacent pins. Disconnect the connector
and, while unmated, dip both connectors in the corrosion preventive compound three times with a two-hour interval
between dipping. After 24 hours at the conditions described in 4.2, reconnect the connectors. Determine the
resistance and record for each mated pair of pins and the selected adjacent pins. A change of more than 5
milliohms from the initial contact resistance is not acceptable.
MIL-PRF-81309F 4.6.7.1
Dielectric strength. The dielectric strength shall be tested in accordance with ASTM-D877. 4.6.8. Effect on

MIL-PRF-23377 primer and MIL-PRF-85285 gloss white urethane topcoat, in accordance with the specification
directions, and allow to dry for a minimum of 4 weeks. Using the method and materials of ASTM-F502, test the
compound by applying it to approximately one half of a test panel positioned horizontally, painted side up, in an
oven at 100!F. After 30 minutes, remove the panel from the oven and remove the compound using MILPRF-680, Type II
dry cleaning solvent. After 24 hours, examine the panel and test the two halves for pencil hardness. Streaking,
discoloration or blistering or loss of more than one unit of pencil hardness is not acceptable. 4.6.9 Fill
weight. Weigh a sample can and then spray at three-minute periods with one-minute intervals until the can is
exhausted. Reweigh the container. Determine the minimum net difference. 4.6.10 Film appearance. Mark a test
panel, painted as in 4.6.8 and dried for 4 weeks, with two dots approximately 0.2 inches diameter, 0.5 inches
apart, at the approximate center of the panel, using gray gloss enamel. Immerse the test panel in the compound so
that the lower 2/3 of the panel is submerged. Remove the panel and dry it in a vertical position for 24 hours.
After 24 hours, inspect the panel with the unaided eye and determine whether the simulated corrosion spots are
visible through the coating. 4.6.11 Film thickness. The average film thickness produced by the compound
shall be determined on a panel prepared, cleaned, and coated as specified in 4.5. Calculate the film thickness
using the following formula:
Film thickness (mils) = (1.000 x W) x 0.061 / (D x A) where: W = weight of film (grams). 0.061 cubic
inch = 1 cubic centimeter. D = density of the film, which shall be assumed = 1.0 A = total surface area of
the panel (square inches).
MIL-PRF-81309F 4.6.12 Friction coefficient. 4.6.12.1
Apparatus. The test apparatus (Figures 4 and 5) shall consist of a 5 by 16 by 3/8-inch 2024 T6 SAE-AMS-QQ-A-250/4
milled aluminum plate polished on the test side parallel with the longer dimension with 240 grit silicon carbide
or aluminum oxide cloth or paper; a freely rotating wheel affixed to the plate by an axle parallel to the width
approximately one inch from an end; a block holding 3 test balls in the configuration shown on Figure 5 and
weighted in such a manner that each ball exerts a force equivalent to 250 grams on the surface of the aluminum
plate; and a pan or beaker attached by a string over the pulley wheel to the three ball holder so that when taut
the string is parallel to the plate surface. The test ball bearings shall be of 1/2-inch diameter AISI C-52100
steel, grade 25 extra polish (EP) quality steel balls of the Anti-Friction Bearing Manufacturer's Association.
4.6.12.2 Test procedure. Coat the upper surface of the aluminum plate with the compound to a thickness of 0.001
inch to 0.005 inch. Dry the coating 72°F for 24 hours. After drying, set the weighted three-ball holder gently on
the coated surface at the end of the plate opposite the pulley wheel with one ball forward and two rearward.
Orient so that, if pulled by the string attachment toward the pulley wheel, no rotational motion shall occur.
Attach the pan or beaker as shown on Figure 5. Lightly drop test balls onto the pan from a height of less than
1/4-inch until the three-ball holder moves. If the holder traverses a distance of six inches in less than three
seconds, record the gross weight of the pan. If the movement requires more than three seconds, place the holder as
before at one end of the aluminum plate in a location different from those previous. Drop another test ball onto
the pan from a height of less than 1/4-inch and observe the travel time. Repeat the restarting procedure until the
three-ball holder travels six inches in less than three seconds. Record the gross weight of the pan. Determine the
friction coefficient from the following equation: Friction coefficient= Gross pan weight / 750g
4.6.13 Functional penetration. 4.6.13.1 Specimen fabrication. Fabricate six panels and assemble three
lap–joint specimens in accordance with Figure 6. Apply two strips of 2.0 by 0.5 by 0.20-inch vacuum bag sealing
tape to one end of each lap joint assembly in accordance with Figure 7 and seal tightly.
MATERIAL Test panels 7075 Aluminum, 0.125 by 3.0 by 8.0 inches, treated in accordance with
MIL–C–5541,and primed in accordance with MIL-PRF-23377. Bolt and collar fasteners
MIL-PRF-81309F 4.6.13.2 Fluid penetration at room temperature. Support all three panel assemblies, with
sealed areas at top, to maintain at an angle of 10 degrees from the horizontal (Figure 7). Pour 1.0 ml of the
compound to be tested, as–received bulk material or propellant–free material into the cavity formed by the sealing
tape on each assembly. (NOTE: As an aid in the later identification of total faying surface penetration, an
oil–soluble fluorescent dye, fluoro–green gold, or equivalent, may be dissolved in the compound to be tested
provided the concentration does not exceed 8.0 mg/100 cc.) After 24 hours, remove the residual fluid from the
cavity with clean, dry cheesecloth. Immediately remove sealing tape and wipe all four-perimeter edges of the
faying surface with clean filter paper to remove residual test fluid. Edge clamp each assembly and remove
fasteners. Open each assembly with care and determine the percentage of each faying surface area that has been
wetted by the test fluid – a 3.0 by 2.0 inch transparent grid, with twenty five squares per inch, may be held
above the surface to facilitate measurement of the wetted area. 4.6.14 Leakage or distortion of cans. Completely
submerge the self-pressurized container for 5 minutes in water maintained at a minimum of 130° ± 2°F. Observe for
the emission of bubbles. Distortion of the container or the emission of bubbles from any part of the container is
cause for rejection. 4.6.15 Neutral salt spray protection. Test panels prepared and coated as specified in
4.5 shall be subjected to ASTM-B117 salt spray exposure. Incline three specimens at 6° in a rack. After 336 hours,
clean test panels in solvent, conforming to MIL-PRF-680, and examine for any visible corrosion. If visible
corrosion is found, total surface area corroded shall be no greater than that for the control formula.
4.6.16 Nonvolatile content. Place a portion of the thoroughly mixed sample in a stoppered bottle, or
alternatively, in a weighing pipette or a 10 ml syringe without a needle, and from this weigh by difference 1.2
±0.1 grams into a suitable aluminum weighing dish 80 to 100 mm in diameter and 5 to 10 mm in depth. By gentle
tilting, spread the specimen over the bottom of the dish and heat for 3 hours in a ventilated oven maintained at
221 ±3°F. If necessary, a piece of stout wire can be included in the tare of the dish and used at intervals to
break up skins by stirring during the heating period. Cool in a desiccator and weigh the dish. Calculate the
percent nonvolatile matter to the nearest 0.1 percent, as follows: Percent nonvolatile matter = Net weight
of residue / Net weight of original sample x 100
MIL-PRF-81309F 4.6.17 Performance of Class 2 self-pressurized containers. The rectangular
panels prepared as in 4.5 shall be used. Support a panel such that the longer dimension forms a 45o angle with the
horizontal. Spray corrosion preventive compound on the panel from a distance of 12 inches. Examine the panel for
uniformity of spray, foaming, and adherence to the substrate. After a 10 second pause, respray the same panel and
examine for adhesion and sagging. After a 5 second pause, respray the same panel and examine for adhesion and
sagging. The container shall be checked for conformance with 3.5.1.2. 4.6.18 Removability. Dry the coated
test panel from 4.6.10 for 24 hours at 72°F. Attempt to remove the compound by wiping the coated surface using
light hand pressure with a CCC-C-46 Class 7 wiping cloth dampened with 10 milliliters of MIL-PRF-680, Type II or
MIL-PRF-85570 Type II properly diluted. In daylight, from 6 feet away, there shall be no visual evidence of
residue. 4.6.19 Storage stability. Pour two liters of the material into a clean and dry glass jar. Tightly
cap the jar and wrap it in aluminum foil to exclude all light from the sample. Store the sample for two years in a
constant temperature chamber at 75 ±6°F. At the end of the two year period, remove the jar from the chamber and
take off the aluminum foil. Visually inspect the sample and note the presence of cloudiness, sediment, suspended
matter, or other changes in homogeneity. 4.6.20 Water displacement. Place an uncoated panel (prepared as
specified in 4.5) so that one 2-inch end shall be raised one inch above a horizontal surface. Spray the panel with
the unacidified synthetic sea water of 4.6.1.2 so that its entire upper surface is covered with tiny droplets.
Within one-minute after spraying, pour one milliliter of the test compound along the upper edge of the panel and
allow to run slowly down so as to completely cover the test panel. After another minute, pour a second milliliter
of the test compound and allow to run down in a like manner. After waiting an additional minute, raise the panel
to a vertical position for one minute and then place flat (test side up) above distilled water at 72°F in a closed
desiccator. After 4 hours, remove the panel, clean with mineral spirits, then evaluate for presence of visible
corrosion. 4.6.21 Net content. The sample unit for this examination shall be one filled container. The
sample size shall be as specified in Table IV. The lot is unacceptable if the average net content per container
for all units examined is less than specified. 4.6.22 Flame projection. The flame projection shall be
tested in accordance with ASTMD3065. 4.6.23 Flash point. The flash point shall be tested in accordance with
ASTM-D93.
4.6.24 Hydrogen embrittlement. The hydrogen embrittlement shall be tested in accordance with ASTM-F519.
MIL-PRF-81309F 5. PACKAGING 5.1 Packaging. For acquisition purposes, the packaging

MIL-PRF-81309F 6.7 Relationship of this specification to previous
issues. MIL-C-81309A provided two grades of soft film corrosion preventive compound; grade A for use on all metals
and grade B for use on stainless steel and aluminum in interior locations. MIL-C-0081309B(AS) provided one grade
of dry-to-touch compound which can be used on all metals. Under both of these, specification bulk material or
self-pressurized spray (aerosol) cans were acquired on order but were not classified separately.
MIL-C-0081309C(AS) provided for both dry-to-touch films and soft film compounds for application as described in
6.1. In addition, provision was made to facilitate the acquisition by defining separate classes for bulk or
self-pressurized containers (aerosols). MIL-C-81309D deleted type I, class 1 and 2 compounds which have been
superseded by MIL-C-85054. MIL-C-81309E does not alter the type and class arrangement of MIL-C-81309D; however,
propellants used in self-pressurized containers as substitutes for CFC's have been included as Grades 22 and 134a.
The equivalents are specified in Table IV. MIL-PRF-81309F deleted Grade 22, added Grade CO2 , and modified
corrosion requirements. TABLE IV. Table of equivalents.

ELECTRONICS LUBRICANT EFFECTIVENESS A.1. SCOPE A.1.1 Scope. This Appendix establishes the
requirements and test methods for selection of effective corrosion preventive lubricants for use on electrical and
electronic contacts and connectors. This appendix is a mandatory part of this specification for Type III products
and is intended for compliance.
A.1.2 Significance. Thin film corrosion and wear of contacts and connectors can cause electronic equipment
malfunctions ranging from intermittent glitches to hard failures. Lubrication of contact points can reduce the
mechanical wear of insertion and withdrawl of electrical connectors. In addition, lubricants can reduce wear of
mated connector pins or contact points in a vibrating service environment. Finally, corrosion inhibiting
lubricants can prevent the formation of non-conductive surface oxides which interfere with electrical continuity.

entrance edge of the board. A.3.3 Lubricant application. Lubricant shall be applied only to the simulated
PC board. Lubricant shall be sprayed by hand operation of either aerosol containers or a SAE-AS22805 spray unit
containing the bulk lubricant. Both sides of the simulated PC board shall be sprayed using a single pass over the
length of the board from a distance of 6 to 8 inches, taking 3 to 4 seconds to cover the 3-inch length of the
board. Coated boards shall be inverted (contact edge up) and held in a vertical position along the noncontact edge
for 10 minutes prior to insertion into the edge connector. A.3.4 Sample size. Each connector assembly shall
be tested for initial contact resistance (A.4.1) prior to its use in one and only one additional test (A.4.2
through A.4.6); reuse of either of these components shall not be allowed. For each requirement (A.4.1 through
A.4.6), no less than 100 contacts shall be evaluated. A.3.5 Contact resistance measurement. Measurement
shall be made by connecting the double sided PC board with mounted edge connectors to a data scanning system which
shall measure the resistance of each contact at 50 millivolts open circuit potential with a 10 milliamperes DC
current, as specified in ASTM-B539. The resistance measurement shall be made in such a way that the total initial
resistance (contact plus bulk resistance) is no greater than 15 milliohms. No connector shall be used in which any
total initial resistance measurement is greater than 15 milliohms.
MIL-PRF-81309F APPENDIX A
A.4. LUBRICANT REQUIREMENTS A.4.1 Initial contact resistance. All contacts of edge connectors with
simulated PC boards shall be tested for contact resistance as specified in ASTM-B539 before and after lubrication.
The change in measured resistance for each contact shall be no more than 10 milliohms. A.4.2 Low
