Secondly, the face of the ratio [A] of cubes texture, cubes texture is orientated outward orientation ratio [C] describes in the face of ratio [B], cubes texture.
The ratio of cubes texture [A] is defined as, and the rolling surface of having implemented the rolled copper foil of recrystallization annealing behind final cold rolling process is carried out X-ray diffraction 2 θ/θ measure, and utilize following formula to calculate to present { the 200} of cubes texture

[manufacture method of rolled copper foil]
Below, with reference to the manufacture method of figure explanation rolled copper foil of the present invention.Fig. 5 is the schema of an example of the manufacturing process of expression rolled copper foil of the present invention.
At first, (operation a) to prepare ingot metal (ingot bar) as raw-material reverberatory refining copper (JIS H3100 C1100) and oxygen free copper (JISH3100 C1020) etc.Secondly, carried out enforcement hot rolled hot-rolled process (operation b).Behind hot-rolled process,, make the copper bar that is called as " blank " by suitably implementing cold rolling cold rolling process (operation c) and mitigation process annealing operation (operation d) repeatedly because of the cold rolling work hardening that causes.Then, carry out rough annealing operation (operation d ').In the rough annealing operation, preferably eliminate processing strain (for example, roughly Full Annealing) before this fully.
Thereafter, annealed " blank " (being called the annealing blank) is implemented final cold rolling process (operation e also has the situation that is called " finish rolling operation "), the Copper Foil of making specific thickness is rolling.Rolled copper foil behind the final cold rolling process can carry out (operation f) such as surface treatments as required, supplies with FPC manufacturing process (operation g).As mentioned above, recrystallization annealing (operation g ') often in operation g (for example, CCL operation) carry out.In the present invention, " final cold rolling process " is meant operation e, and " recrystallization annealing " operation g ' is meant the operation of carrying out in operation g.
Here, the feature of one of manufacture method of rolled copper foil of the present invention is, in the later rolling pass of second passage of above-mentioned final cold rolling process, the rolling pass of the big draught more than 1.1 times of draught that has than next-door neighbour's a last rolling pass comprises more than 1 passage.Thus, the terminal stage in this cold rolling processing has strengthened { 220}
CuThe formation of the rolling texture of planar orientation, and then can in this rolling texture, promptly form the kind crystalline substance of cubes tissue.And, can think that the kind crystalline substance of this cubes tissue helps through the height of the cubes texture of recrystallization annealing orientation grow up (details will in aftermentioned).
More preferably, " rolling pass of the big draught more than 1.15 times of draught that has than next-door neighbour's a last rolling pass comprises more than 1 passage.", particularly preferably be that " rolling pass of the big draught more than 1.2 times of draught that has than next-door neighbour's a last rolling pass comprises more than 1 passage.”。With regard to " having the rolling pass than 1.1 times of little draught " of breaking away from afore mentioned rules, the kind crystalline substance that forms the cubes tissue in rolling texture is difficult.
In addition, a passage before final passage in the preferably final cold rolling process or next-door neighbour are final has the draught about a maximum passage in the later rolling pass of the 2nd passage.Thus, the kind crystalline substance that can be suppressed at the cubes tissue that forms in the rolling texture be accompanied by rolling process carrying out and to other orientation rotation (details will in aftermentioned).In addition, be controlled at more than 80% below 90% by total reduction final cold rolling process, except total road number of times that can reduce rolling process, the difficulty of the controlled rolling processing that can also avoid causing because of over-drastic work hardening, and can promote the reduction of manufacturing cost.
In addition, replacing other manufacture method of the rolled copper foil of the present invention of above-mentioned manufacture method is to adjust the manufacture method of annealing blank in the following manner by controlling rough annealing operation (operation d ') at least.In final afterwards cold rolling process (operation e) rolled copper foil (annealing blank) before of rough annealing (operation d '), it is characterized in that, utilization is that the X-ray diffraction pole graph of benchmark is measured among the result who obtains with the rolling surface, in the α angle of measuring with pole graph is transverse axis, with { the 220} of the copper crystal that is obtained by the scanning of β axle of each α angle
CuThe stdn intensity of face diffraction peak is that the longitudinal axis is when using curve representation, at α=40 ∽ 50
0Between have the maximum value Q of stdn intensity, at α=20 ∽ 40
0Between have the mnm. S of stdn intensity, be that the rolled copper foil of " 2≤Q/S≤3 " is as the annealing blank to final cold rolling process with the ratio of above-mentioned maximum value Q and above-mentioned mnm. S.And then it is the final cold rolling process (operation e) below 93% more than 80% that such annealing blank is implemented total reduction.In addition, as the rough annealing condition, preference is as 600
0More than 700
0Below 1-30 minutes condition of (the real attitude temperature of Copper Foil) insulation.More preferably temperature is 650
0More than 700

Like this, be that the X-ray diffraction pole graph of benchmark is measured among the result who obtains with the rolling surface in the utilization of final cold rolling process (operation e) recrystallization annealing afterwards (operation g ') rolled copper foil before, exist in the β angle at least each 90 ± 5
0α angle=45 that exist pole graph to measure

CuThe face diffraction peak also shows symmetric crystal grain 4 times; In addition, be transverse axis in the α angle of measuring with pole graph, to scan { the 220} of the copper crystal that obtains by β
CuThe stdn intensity of face diffraction peak is that the longitudinal axis is when using curve representation, at α=25 ∽ 35
0Between have the maximum value P of stdn intensity, at α=40 ∽ 50
0Between have the maximum value Q of stdn intensity, at α=85 ∽ 90
0Between stdn intensity increase monotonously, obtain maximum value P and maximum value Q and α=90

As mentioned above, { the 220} of copper crystal

CuFace exists 45 geometrically
0(angle of two crystal plane formation is (45

0Between exist the maximum value Q of stdn intensity with on the rolling surface of rolled copper foil { 200}
CuThe degree of orientation is relevant in the crystal grain face of face.In other words, the invention is characterized in, in final afterwards cold rolling process (operation e) blank before of rough annealing (operation d '), { 200} that on rolling surface, exists
CuThe crystal grain of orientation is the degree of " Q≤P≤R " through final cold rolling process (operation e) existence pass in planar orientation and the face.
In addition, be controlled at more than 80% by total reduction and compare with the rolled copper foil of existing high draught below 93% final cold rolling process, except total road number of times that can reduce rolling process, the difficulty of the controlled rolling processing that can also avoid causing because of over-drastic work hardening, and can promote the load of minimizing producing apparatus and the reduction of manufacturing cost.
(investigation of the mechanism of high curved characteristic)
Below, the mechanism of the high curved characteristic of the rolled copper foil of embodiments of the present invention is described.When to the Metallic Solids stress application, be easy to generate dislocation moving in the crystal along the crystalline slip plane.Yet the grain boundary generally becomes the obstacle to dislocation moving.In as multicrystal rolled copper foil, when dislocation is transported to when accumulating in grain boundary etc. because of bending, then be easy to generate crackle assembling part, can think to cause so-called metal fatigue.In other words, as long as can in metal polycrystal, suppress the gathering of dislocation, just can expect to improve curved characteristic.
The rolled copper foil of embodiments of the present invention demonstrates and can just can control cubes texture after the recrystallization annealing by the grain orientation state behind control annealing blank and/or the final cold rolling process.Can think, as long as can obtain constructing { the 111} of distinctive slip plane by recrystallize as the face-centered cubic of copper crystal
CuThe cubes texture that the orientation of face (that is, alignment slip direction) is crossed over the grain boundary and is well controlled just can improve the probability that when bending is transported to dislocation causes cross slip thus, and its result just can obtain high curved characteristic.That is, main points are how to form crystal grain and are the cubes texture of 3 D tropism (always being orientated the ratio height) each other.
On the other hand, it is contemplated that " the stress under compression composition " and " tensile stress composition " that is decomposed into object at the rolling stress that man-hour object is applied that adds.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 (orientation that is orientated on rolling surface) generally is that the occasion of stress under compression is { 220}
CuFace, the occasion of tensile stress are { 311}
CuFace or { 211}
CuFace.Can think, follow the processing strained of these rotation phenomenons to accumulate the motivating force that forms cubes texture when becoming recrystallize.
In existing rolled copper foil, from the point of view, purpose is by setting the total reduction of final cold rolling process higher (for example, more than 93%) and improve stress under compression, thereby improves { 220}
CuPlanar orientation (rolling texture) and the accumulation of processing strained.In addition, as mentioned above,, only be conceived to improve { 200} as cubes texture
CuThe occupation rate of face in rolling surface (perpendicular to the rolling surface direction one-dimension oriented), and will not consider especially the state of orientation in rolling surface (that is crystal grain 3 D tropism each other).But, because along with the material (Copper Foil) that carries out of rolling processing is got over hardening because of work hardening, thereby can expect, general, along with the draught of each passage of carrying out of rolling processing diminishes.
Yet it is relevant with following phenomenon that such mill condition can be thought, that is: because in a single day the passage (rolling pass that the draught of each passage is big) of high draught forms { 220}
CuThe part of the crystal grain of planar orientation is owing to the passage of thereafter low draught begins to { 311}
CuPlanar orientation and { 211}
CuThe planar orientation rotation.This is because can think that for the big rolling pass of the draught of each passage, its " stress under compression composition " preponderates; And for the little rolling pass of the draught of each passage, its " tensile stress composition " preponderates.
To this, one of manufacture method of rolled copper foil of the present invention is in the later rolling pass of second passage of final cold rolling process, has adopted the rolling pass that has than the big draught more than 1.1 times of draught of next-door neighbour's a last rolling pass to comprise mill condition such more than 1 passage.Concrete for example can enumerate, and carries out at the latter half of mill condition that each passage in the later rolling pass of second passage has the formation of passage of maximum draught and the draught of each passage increases such formation later on gradually in second passage.Rolling working method like this becomes and the opposite formation of existing method mill condition.In addition, after second passage of final cold rolling process the latter half of mill condition (particularly), by the high rolling pass of draught of carrying out each passage, thereby distinguish in rolling processing to produce partial recrystallize phenomenon etc. midway, in rolling texture, form kind the crystalline substance ({ 220} of cubes tissue
CuThe crystal grain of planar orientation).And, can think that the kind crystalline substance of this cubes tissue helps the high orientation of the cubes texture of recrystallization annealing and grows up.
On the other hand, other manufacture method of rolled copper foil of the present invention has following method, that is: control is to the annealing blank of final cold rolling process (operation e) supply, at the rolling texture ({ 220} of final cold rolling process (operation e)
CuPlanar orientation) in the forming process, makes remaining cubes the tissue ({ 220} that an amount of (degree that the relation of " Q≤P≤R " is set up) arranged of this rolling texture
CuPlanar orientation) crystal grain.And, can think to have and disperse and remain in the crystal grain of having accumulated the cubes tissue in the processing strained rolling texture to help high orientation growth (particularly 3 D tropism) by the kind trichite effect of waving that the cubes texture as recrystallization annealing forms.
Have again, this manufacture method of rolled copper foil, can think, the total reduction of its final cold rolling process is more than 80% below 93%, in the crystal grain (not producing the crystal grain of the rotation phenomenon of crystal plane) of remaining above-mentioned cubes tissue, to rolled copper foil (for example, the total reduction 93% or more) much less of the processing strained of Copper Foil accumulation than prior art.The motivating force that this atom during with recrystallization annealing rearranges is little relevant, can suppress grow up (thickization of crystal grain) of recrystal grain.Suppress excessively growing up to be related to and to solve " the dish shape depressed phenomenon " that in FPC manufacturing process, becomes problem recently of recrystal grain.When so-called " dish shape depressed phenomenon " is meant in FPC manufacturing process Copper Foil carried out half corrosion, present the phenomenon that the big crystal grain of particle diameter preferentially is corroded, copper foil surface becomes the arc crater shape owing to exist to be inclined to crystal grain unit's corrosive.
