Background
The electronic industry uses a semi-etching process to process metal parts such as a soaking plate, a lead frame and the like, and has higher requirements on the apparent plate shape and the potential plate shape of raw materials. In the production of thin metal strips, hot rolling, cold rolling, heat treatment, shearing and other processes are generally carried out, residual stress is generated in different degrees in each process, and particularly, stress distribution is inconsistent among different parts of strips due to non-uniform deformation or non-uniform temperature. Although the internal stress of the metal plate strip can be reduced by continuous tension annealing, stretch bending, straightening and other processes in the subsequent process of the thin metal plate strip, the evaluation method of the internal stress of the whole process flow and different batches is lacked, so that each control procedure cannot obtain effective stress feedback.
The methods for measuring the internal stress can be divided into a nondestructive method and a destructive method, wherein the nondestructive method comprises an X-ray method, an ultrasonic method, an indentation strain resistance method, a magnetic method and a neutron diffraction method, and the destructive method comprises a blind hole method, a strip deformation method and a notch method. The internal stress test method for the sheet material comprises an X-ray method, a strip deformation method and the like.
According to japanese standard JBMA-T304-201, when evaluating the edge stress of a copper plate strip, the edge is striped and the deflection, lateral bending, torsion, etc. are characterized, considering that the deflection deformation is related to the stress distribution in the thickness direction, the test value is affected by the reverse bending and the dead weight, theoretically, it is proportional to the square of the stripe length, inversely proportional to the thickness, and proportional to the stress gradient. The method is suitable for evaluating the stress of the edge part of the punching material due to slitting.
For etching metal strips, the etching graph of a downstream processing plant is generally adopted to carry out half etching to evaluate whether the stress of the strips is qualified, the stress judgment lacks contrast, and the evaluation result lacks universality. However, it is difficult to optimize the number of test points for stress evaluation by using all X-ray tests, and the test cost is high.

Further, firstly, the two sides of the metal plate strip are protected by adhering corrosion-resistant adhesive tapes, one side of the metal plate strip is carved with a notch of a required sample strip, the other side of the metal plate strip is carved with a notch corresponding to a half-etching part on the sample strip, then the corrosion-resistant adhesive tapes covered on the half-etching part are removed, etching is carried out to a required depth, finally the corrosion-resistant adhesive tapes of the half-etching part are adhered, then the corrosion-resistant adhesive tapes of the notch of the required sample strip are removed, and the notch of the required sample strip is etched.

Detailed Description
The present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.
FIG. 1 shows the analysis of different deformation characteristic moments when an etched sample strip is horizontally placed, wherein a deformation symmetrical plane of deflection is a 1/2 thickness plane, a rotating shaft is parallel to the transverse direction of the strip, namely the TD direction, a stressed rigid thin rod is parallel to the normal direction of the strip, namely the ND direction, and stress parallel to the surface has a rotating effect on the deflection.
Fig. 2 shows a typical stress distribution model for a thin metal plate, which has guaranteed flatness before half-etching, but has been etched at different depths to find that the moment is not balanced, causing deflection or curl. By adopting the method, the deformation constraint, particularly the constraint in the thickness direction, is released by changing the dimensions of the strip in the width direction and the thickness direction, the stress distribution is speculated by etching a metal sample strip, carrying out half etching and testing the deflection of the sample strip, wherein the relation between the bending moment and the stress of the sample strip can be expressed as follows:
wherein σ is the stress of each point of the sample strip parallel to the surface of the metal plate strip, t0Residual thickness of the sample at half-etching, w0Is the width of the spline, /)0Is the length of the spline, K is the coefficient, M is the bending moment of the spline, t is the thickness, w is the width, and l is the length.
Before stress evaluation, the flatness of the metal plate strip needs to be measured, and whether the requirements of standards on the flatness are met or not is judged.
Specifically, the method for evaluating the stress distribution of the thin metal plate strip comprises the following steps: respectively stripping a rectangular sample strip with the width of 2-50 mm and the length of 100 +/-0.5 mm in the rolling direction and the transverse direction of the middle part of the metal plate strip by an etching method, connecting one end of the sample strip with the metal plate strip, etching the other end of the sample strip, and simultaneously carrying out half-etching on the sample strip in the thickness direction, wherein the half-etching depth is one or more of 1/4, 1/2 and 3/4 of the thickness of the metal plate strip, the bending condition of the sample strip when the metal plate strip is horizontally placed is counted, and the bending condition of the sample strip is shown in fig. 4 (a). And when the deflection height of any half etching depth sample strip is less than 0.5mm, measuring the lateral bending of the sample strip when the metal strip is vertically placed, and evaluating the stress distribution condition of the metal strip in the thickness direction according to the lateral bending amount, wherein the measurement is shown in figure 4 (b).
The stress analysis process of the metal plate strip comprises the steps of protection, etching, corrosion, measurement and the like.
First, both sides of a sample to be measured (i.e., a thin metal plate) are tightly covered with an acid-resistant transparent adhesive tape. The middle part of one surface of the thin metal plate, namely the part which is more than 12.5mm away from the edge, is carved with a rectangular strip and a corrosion seam at the edge part by using a steel ruler and a sharp blade, wherein the width of the rectangular strip is 20 +/-0.2 mm, the length of the rectangular strip is 100 +/-0.5 mm, the length direction of the rectangular strip is parallel to the rolling direction, the starting end of the rectangular rolling direction is not carved with the corrosion seam, the width of the corrosion seam is 0.5 mm-1 mm, and the corrosion-resistant adhesive tape at the position is reserved after the carving. And scribing a frame with the thickness of more than 21 x 101mm on the other surface corresponding to the etching pattern, ensuring that the corrosion joint and the sample strip are covered, and removing the corrosion-resistant adhesive tape on the surface, wherein the surface is marked as a semi-etching surface.
Secondly, the concentrated nitric acid and the deionized water are mixed into corrosive liquid with the ratio of 1:10, the thin metal plate is stably placed in the nitric acid for corrosion, and the part of the thin metal plate, from which the adhesive tape is removed, namely the half-etched surface is firstly corroded to the designated position of the thickness. Cleaning and drying the half-etched surface, sticking the half-etched surface with a corrosion-resistant adhesive tape, corroding the corrosion joint on the other surface, taking out the half-etched surface from the corrosive liquid after most of the corrosion joint is corroded, cleaning the half-etched surface in clean water, and removing all the corrosion-resistant adhesive tape. If part of the corrosion liquid is not corroded, the part which is not corroded is corroded by sucking the corrosion liquid by a suction pipe. And finally, thoroughly cleaning and drying the thin metal plate strip, wherein the deformation of the etching part is prevented in the cleaning and drying process.
The etched metal strip is then placed on a horizontal table of a height gauge, and the height of deflection of the sample strip is measured using the height gauge. When the deflection height is larger than or equal to 0.5mm, the stress distribution of the metal plate strip can be judged to be uneven, and the stress of the upper surface and the lower surface of the metal plate strip, the 1/4 thickness part, the 1/2 thickness part and the 3/4 thickness part is measured by adopting X rays. And when the deflection height is less than 0.5mm, judging the stress distribution condition by measuring the lateral bending amount of the sample strip when the metal plate strip is vertically placed.
When the lateral bending amount of the sample strip is measured, the thin metal plate strip after half etching splitting is clamped by flat tongs to be vertically placed and fixed, as shown in fig. 4(b), the length direction of the sample strip is parallel to the horizontal plane and is placed below an image measuring instrument or a laser three-coordinate instrument, a basal body surface which is not corroded in the lateral bending direction is selected as a datum line, and the distance from the top point of the bent sample strip to the datum line is measured to obtain the lateral bending amount of the half etching sample strip. And evaluating whether the stress state of the thin metal plate strip is qualified or not through the lateral bending amount. When the lateral bending amount is larger than or equal to 20mm, the stress distribution can be judged to be uneven, and the stress of the upper surface and the lower surface of the plate belt, the 1/4 thickness, the 1/2 thickness and the 3/4 thickness part is measured by adopting X rays. When the lateral bending amount is less than 20mm, the stress can be judged to be uniform, and the single surface stress of the metal plate strip can be measured only by X-rays.
Example 1:
taking a C194 copper plate strip with the dimensions of 0.308mm thickness, 200mm width and 250mm length (rolling direction), carrying out spline etching according to the figure 1, and half-etching to half the thickness of the copper plate strip (namely, the thickness is 0.154mm), wherein the width of the spline is 20mm and the length of the spline is 100mm, measuring the bending height of the spline when the copper plate strip is horizontally placed, and measuring the lateral bending amount of the spline when the copper plate strip is vertically placed because the bending height is less than 0.5mm, wherein the measured values are shown in the table 1. Because the deflection height is less than 0.5mm and the lateral bending amount is less than 20mm when the copper plate is vertically placed, the stress of the copper plate is judged to be qualified, namely the stress is uniformly distributed, and the surface stress is 25MPa measured by X-ray.

Example 2:
taking a C194 copper strip with the dimensions of 0.308mm thickness, 200mm width and 250mm length (rolling direction), strip etching is carried out according to the figure 1, and half etching is carried out until half of the thickness of the copper strip (namely, the thickness is 0.154mm), wherein the width of the strip is 20mm, the length of the strip is 100mm, the bending height of the strip is measured when the copper strip is flatly placed, and the measured values are shown in the table 2. Because the deflection height of the horizontally placed sample strip is more than 0.5mm, the stress of the copper plate is judged to be unqualified, namely the stress distribution is not uniform, the stress of the upper surface of the copper plate is-170 MPa, the stress of the lower surface of the copper plate is-156 MPa, the stress of 1/4 thickness part is-100 MPa, the stress of the central part (namely 1/2 thickness) is-50 MPa, the stress of 3/4 thickness part is-80 MPa, and the maximum stress difference reaches 120 MPa.

The deflection height of the horizontally placed sample strip is more than 0.5mm, the stress distribution of the copper plate is judged to be unqualified, namely the stress distribution is not uniform, the upper surface stress is-213 MPa, the lower surface stress is-180 MPa, the stress of 1/4 thickness parts is-112 MPa, the stress of a central part is-34 MPa, the stress of 3/4 thickness parts is-147 MPa, and the maximum stress difference reaches 179 MPa.
