Two references:
(1) D.S. Peck "Comprehensive model for humidity testing" IEEE/IRPS 1986
(2) The best of THB paper I have cross: "Predicting a life of SLC/FCA
assembly by performing the accelerated stress of temperature, humidity and
voltage bias" by K. Imahara, IBM Japan, Proceeding of Stress 95 in Japan.
It detailed thermal factor, humidity factor, mechanism of moisture
absorption and influence of oxygen, and mechanical stress. The activation
energy for copper migration is 1.25 eV for the IBM SLC (FR4 based) assembly.
The data was based on 85 C/85 RH testing.  You can follow the method to
obtain the Activation energy of Cu for your system (polyimide/acrylic/Cu).
(sorry, don't have the official paper).

Good luck!

p.s. by the way, are you suppose on Holiday?
