We are presently considering the use of carbon-impregnated  
     cardboard (for ESD) for the storage of small assemblies with Silver 
     and Gold Leads.  
        It is well understood in industry that Sulfur impairs the 
     solderability of the surface but does anyone know if sulfur has any 
     other detrimental affects on Silver and Gold finishes (i.e. corrosion, 
     etc.).  These pins will not be soldered therefore solderability of the 
     surface is not a concern.  We just want to confirm there is no other 
     detrimental affects of Sulfur.
     
        Thanks for your time.
