Conclude grain orientation state so far.The rolled copper foil of embodiments of the present invention at first, behind the final cold rolling process and under the state before recrystallization annealing, has formed good the rolling texture ({ 220} more than 80%
CuThe occupation rate of face and suppressed recrystallize phenomenon in the cold rolling course of processing).In addition, this rolled copper foil is being carried out under the state of recrystallization annealing { 200}
CuThe occupation rate of face is more than 90%, should { 200}
CuThe amplitude of fluctuation of face is very little, and has formed { 111}
CuThe cubes texture that the amplitude of fluctuation of face is very little.This can think that there is the state (grain orientation state) of three-dimensional good proper alignment in the cubic system of copper.
Then, the mechanism that realizes high curved characteristic is described.
Below, the mechanism of the high curved characteristic of realization of the rolled copper foil of embodiments of the present invention is described simply.
When to the Metallic Solids stress application, though dislocation moves along the crystalline slip plane easily, the grain boundary generally becomes the obstacle to dislocation moving.In as multicrystal rolled copper foil, if because the bending motion dislocation accumulates in grain boundary etc. locates, then be easy to generate crackle assembling part, can think to have caused so-called metal fatigue.If get opposite view,, then can realize the raising of curved characteristic as long as can suppress the gathering of dislocation in polycrystal.
As mentioned above, the rolled copper foil of embodiments of the present invention (behind final cold rolling process, having carried out under the state of recrystallization annealing), because the cubic system of copper has the crystal structure of three-dimensional good proper alignment, thereby can think that when bending is transported to dislocation causes that the probability of cross slip is very high.Therefore, can think that grain boundary etc. is difficult to become the obstacle to dislocation moving, curved characteristic can improve (flex life is prolonged often).
In other words, in order to cause cross slip effectively, need to make { 200} at least
CuThe occupation rate height of face makes this { 200}
CuThe amplitude of fluctuation of face is little, and { 111}
CuThe amplitude of fluctuation of face is also little, i.e. three all good (for example, { 200} of orientation
CuThe occupation rate of face 〉=90%, 0.85≤IW
{ 200}/ FWHM
{ 200}≤ 1.15 and 0.85≤IW
{ 111}/ FWHM
{ 111}≤ 1.15).
Its reason be because, even so-called cubes texture is done to such an extent that very flourishingly (usually refer to { 200}
CuThe high state of occupation rate in the face of rolling surface), if { 200}
CuFace and { 111}
CuThe amplitude of fluctuation of face is not little, then is easy to generate big skew in adjacent intercrystalline slip direction, is difficult to cause cross slip.
The 5th embodiment of the present invention
The median size of the recrystal grain of rolled copper foil then, is described.
The feature of the rolled copper foil of present embodiment is: carried out under the state of recrystallization annealing behind final cold rolling process, the median size of observing this recrystal grain of rolling surface is more than the 40 μ m.
As mentioned above, in polycrystal,, just can realize the raising of curved characteristic as long as can suppress the accumulation (perhaps, preventing the obstacle of dislocation moving) of dislocation.That is, the cubic system of copper by the particle diameter (grain boundary itself is reduced) that strengthens recrystal grain, then improves the more remarkable effect of curved characteristic except being the grain orientation state of three-dimensional proper alignment.
But even reduce the grain boundary, if three orientations of recrystal grain are low, the effect that improves curved characteristic is also very little.That is, the rolled copper foil of present embodiment has dislocation and causes that the grain orientation of cross slip and so on also is a precondition when bending is transported to.In addition, for the median size of recrystal grain being made more than the 40 μ m, can be by when increasing the total reduction (for example, more than 94%) of final cold rolling process, the recrystallize phenomenon (details will in aftermentioned) that suppresses in the cold rolling course of processing realizes.
On the other hand, if the median size of recrystal grain is littler than 40 μ m, then can not obtain than existing high curved characteristic.Therefore, the median size of recrystal grain is got more than the 40 μ m.More than the preferred 50 μ m, more preferably more than the 60 μ m.
The 6th embodiment of the present invention
Then, description standard average intensity.
The feature of the rolled copper foil of present embodiment is: behind the final cold rolling process and under the state before recrystallization annealing, be { the 111} of benchmark with the rolling surface
CuThe XRD utmost point of face resembles in the figure mensuration, and the stdn average intensity of α angle in 35 ° of-75 ° of scopes is non-stepped, and perhaps greatly in fact only there is one in the zone.
Fig. 7 is the rolled copper foil for present embodiment, behind the final cold rolling process and under the state before recrystallization annealing, by being { the 111} of benchmark with the rolling surface
CuThe XRD utmost point of face resembles the example that figure measures the result who obtains.As indicated in Fig. 7, demonstrate in α=35 in °-75 ° the scope and be { 111}
CuThe stdn average intensity of face is non-stepped, perhaps has the rolled copper foil that in fact only there is one grain orientation state in very big zone.This shows that the recrystallize phenomenon in the cold rolling course of processing is suppressed, and has formed good rolling texture.
On the other hand, { the 111} in the scope of α=35 °-75 °
CuIf the stdn average intensity of face is stepped, if there is the rolled copper foil of a plurality of grain orientation states in perhaps very big zone, carrying out in the rolled copper foil of recrystallization annealing thereafter, then can not obtain the curved characteristic higher than the past.Therefore, make { 111} in the scope of α=35 °-75 °

The 8th embodiment of the present invention
Then, the copper alloy that rolled copper foil is described is formed.
The FPC of present embodiment is that by the Sn that comprises 0.001-0.009 quality %, all the other are the copper alloy that copper and unavoidable impurities constitute with the feature of rolled copper foil.
In the present embodiment, the qualification reason specification sheets of the interpolation reason of the alloying constituent of the copper alloy of formation FPC usefulness rolled copper foil and content is as follows.
In rolled copper foil, the total reduction big more (for example, more than 90%) of final cold rolling process then has to cause normal temperature remollescent tendency easily.When causing this undesirable phenomenon (normal temperature softening), the then severing of the Copper Foil in FPC manufacturing process and be easy to generate the distortion of Copper Foil during with the lamination of base material becomes the reason that yield rate reduces.
By in copper, containing Sn,, also can suppress normal temperature softening (control softening temperature and recrystallize begin temperature) even carried out strong processing at final cold rolling process.In addition, said here " normal temperature softening " has comprised the recrystallize phenomenon (details will in aftermentioned) of the part in the cold rolling processing.Be accompanied by the increase that contains the Sn amount, the softening temperature of rolled copper foil rises.Be less than the occasion of 0.001 quality % at Sn, it is difficult controlling to desired softening temperature.In addition, too high in the occasion of Sn because of softening temperature more than 0.009 quality %, in above-mentioned CCL operation, carry out the recrystallization annealing difficulty that becomes, and produce the defective of the reduction and so on of electroconductibility.

Below, the manufacture method of rolled copper foil is described.
Fig. 9 is the whole schema of manufacturing process of the rolled copper foil of expression embodiments of the present invention.The rolled copper foil of above-mentioned present embodiment is by preparing as raw-material reverberatory refining copper (JISH3100 C1100) or oxygen free copper (JIS H3100 C1020) or containing the copper alloy ingot (ingot casting) of mentioned component (operation is carried out hot rolled hot-rolled process (operation b) a) afterwards; Behind the hot-rolled process, carry out cold rolling cold rolling process (operation c) and elimination process annealing operation (operation d) because of the cold rolling work hardening that causes by suitably implementing repeatedly; Thereby make be called as " blank " through the annealed rolled copper foil.In addition, also will become " blank " process annealing operation before sometimes and be called " blank anneal operation " (operation d ').In " blank anneal operation ", wish to eliminate fully processing strain (for example roughly Full Annealing) before this.
Then, " blank " implemented final cold rolling process (operation e also has the situation that is called as " finish rolling operation "), make the FPC rolled copper foil of specific thickness.In addition, rolled copper foil at this moment is in the state (state that is not annealed) of work hardening.
Rolled copper foil behind the final cold rolling process carries out surface treatment (operation f) as required, supplies with FPC manufacturing process (operation g).Recrystallization annealing as mentioned above, (operation g ') in operation g (for example, CCL operation), carry out often.
In the present invention, so-called " final cold rolling process " is meant operation e, and so-called " recrystallization annealing " operation g ' is meant the operation of carrying out in operation g.
The feature of showing the manufacture method of rolled copper foil of the present invention is, the total reduction of the final cold rolling process before the recrystallization annealing is decided to be more than 94%, and the draught in each road is controlled at 15-50%.Additional features is in this final cold rolling process, control it as " draught in the draught in the draught in first road 〉=second road 〉=the 3rd road ", and each road draught that the 3rd road is later to be controlled at 15-25%.
In addition, so-called total reduction is defined as: total reduction (%)={ 1-(thickness of slab of the thickness of slab/blank behind the final cold rolling process) } * 100.In addition, the draught in so-called each road is meant the decrement when thickness of slab has passed through a pair roller, is defined as: the draught in each road (%)={ 1-(thickness of slab before the thickness of slab after the rolling processing once/this rolling processing) } * 100.
In the final cold rolling process before recrystallization annealing, it is in order to realize rolling surface is had the { 220} of the occupation rate more than 80% that total reduction is decided to be more than 94%
CuPlanar orientation (rolling texture), and be implemented in { the 200} that has the occupation rate more than 90% on the rolling surface by later recrystallization annealing
CuPlanar orientation (cubes texture).In addition, by this recrystallization annealing, be to reach more than the 40 μ m for the median size that makes recrystal grain.
Have again, in the final cold rolling process before recrystallization annealing, each road draught is controlled at 15-50%, especially be controlled to be " draught in the draught in the draught in first road 〉=second road 〉=the 3rd road ", and each road draught that the 3rd road is later is controlled at 15-25% at rolling texture { 111}
CuThe XRD utmost point of face resembles during figure measures, and makes in α=35 { 111} in °-75 ° the scope
CuThe stdn average intensity of face is non-stepped, realizes that perhaps greatly in fact only there is one grain orientation state in the zone.
In final cold rolling process, less than 94% or the control of each road draught do not satisfied the occasion of above-mentioned condition, be not enough for achieving the above object at total reduction.Therefore, total reduction is decided to be more than 94%, and each road draught is controlled at 15-50%.Have again, preferably be controlled to be " draught in the draught in the draught in first road 〉=second road 〉=the 3rd road ", and each road draught that the 3rd road is later is controlled at 15-25%.
Below, the research to draught control is described.
The rolling stress that applies man-hour that adds can consider to be divided into " tensile stress composition " and " stress under compression composition " to processing object.In addition, in the cold rolling processing to Copper Foil, the copper crystal in the Copper Foil forms rolling texture owing to the rolling stress that adds man-hour causes rotation phenomenon along with the progress of processing.At this moment, the crystalline gyrobearing that is caused by stress direction (to the orientation orientation of rolling surface) is { 220} in the occasion of stress under compression usually
CuFace is { 311} in the occasion of tensile stress
CuFace or { 211}
CuFace.
In existing rolled copper foil, from above-mentioned viewpoint, the reduction settings in the total reduction of final cold rolling process and each road is got higher, then strengthened { 220} by improving stress under compression
CuPlanar orientation (rolling texture).
In addition, in existing rolled copper foil, only be conceived to the total reduction of final cold rolling process, the draught in each road is then done special consideration.But, improving the occasion of total reduction, from reducing the viewpoint of processing passage, can think that the common practice is that reduction settings with each road gets higher.
Yet, by the inventor studying in great detail of learning of metallic crystal understood, if the reduction settings with each road get higher after, and improve total reduction, in the process of final cold rolling process, produce recrystallize phenomenon etc. partly, hindered { 220}
CuThe formation of planar orientation (rolling texture).In addition, to { 220}
CuMuch less the obstruction that planar orientation (rolling texture) forms, has also hindered three orientations of the cubes texture that is caused by recrystallization annealing.
Therefore, the present invention has illustrated and the draught (stress under compression) in each road has been controlled than after low, and improved the manufacture method of total reduction (accumulation processing strain) with in the past opposite.Therefore, in the recrystallize in being suppressed at final cold rolling process process (the processing strained is eliminated), can form { 220} with the occupation rate more than 80%
CuPlanar orientation (rolling texture).

If take all factors into consideration the result of table 4-7, can think, because embodiment 2 and 3 rolled copper foil have carried out necessary and sufficient recrystallization annealing, thus with existing rolled copper foil (comparative example 1-3) relatively, demonstrate the above flex life number of times (high curved characteristic) of twice.In addition,, can think that the average crystal grain particle diameter after the thermal treatment has enough sizes (more than the 40 μ m) according to same reason.
In addition, for the rolled copper foil that has carried out above-mentioned heat treated embodiment 2 and 3, carrying out XRD 2 θ/θ mensuration, { 200} similarly to Example 1
CuThe rocking curve of face is measured and is { the 111} of benchmark with the rolling surface
CuWhen the XRD utmost point of face resembles figure mensuration (orientation is measured in the face, the evaluation of stdn average intensity ratio), can confirm { the 200} more than 90% respectively
CuThe occupation rate of face, FWHM
{ 200}≤ 10 °, 0.85≤IW
{ 200}/ FWHM
{ 200}≤ 1.15, ave-FWHM
{ 111}≤ 10 °, 0.85≤IW
{ 111}/ FWHM
{ 111}≤ 1.15 and [a]/[b] 〉=3.
On the other hand, the comparative example 4 that the content of Sn composition is Duoed than the scope of the present invention's regulation, its curved characteristic is poorer than existing rolled copper foil (comparative example 1-3).Therefore, carry out the XRD utmost point for the rolled copper foil that has carried out above-mentioned heat treated comparative example 4 and resembled figure mensuration.Figure 18 be comparative example 4 be { the 111} of benchmark with the rolling surface
CuThe XRD utmost point of face resembles an example of figure measurement result.Figure 18 (a) expression be { the 111} that the β scanning by each α angle obtains
CuThe stdn average intensity of the diffraction peak of face, what Figure 18 (b) represented is that positive pole resembles figure.
As indicated in the result among the figure, the stdn average intensity is than being [a]/[b]≤3, and the diffraction that comes from the diffraction of recrystallize as can be known and come from rolling texture mixes and exists.This can think because the content of Sn composition is too much, thereby recrystallization annealing can not be carried out fully.
