Definitions
- the present invention relates to a Co-Si based copper alloy plate.
- Co-Si based copper alloy As small sized electric and electronic equipment such as a connector is needed, a high strength Co-Si based copper alloy (Colson alloy) is developed. Since the Co-Si based Colson alloy is provided by producing a precipitate compound of Co and Si, it requires solution treatment at high temperature and aging. Therefore, a firm oxide film is formed on the surface, which degrades solder wettability. Also, the Colson alloy may be stress relief annealed after final rolling, which may further grow the oxide film. For this reason, acid pickling is conducted after a final heat treatment, and the oxide film is dissolved and further removed by buffing (hereinafter referred to as a "buffing with acid pickling").
- a copper alloy material having improved solder wettability by specifying surface roughness Ra of 0.2 ⁇ m or less and Rt of 2 ⁇ m or less (Patent Literature 1).
- a copper alloy material is developed by conducting acid pickling or degreasing before finish rolling, thereby improving the solder wettability (Patent Literature 2).
- a peak position in a frequency distribution graph representing concave-convex components on the surface will appear at a plus side (at a convex component side) of a mean line for the roughness profile (0 position in the frequency distribution graph), and solder wettability and plating property will be improved.
- the oxide film of the Co-Si based Colson alloy is quite firm, and is therefore not removed easily only by acid pickling.
- only acid pickling is conducted after a heat treatment and no grinding is conducted, or no acid pickling and no grinding are conducted. It is considered that the oxide film on the surface of the material is not completely removed, and the pin holes may be easily generated. Accordingly, the present invention is made to solve the above-described problems.
- An object thereof is to provide a Co-Si based copper alloy plate having excellent solder wettability and less pin holes generated when soldering.
- a peak position in a frequency distribution graph representing concave-convex components on a surface in the direction transverse to rolling direction is at a minus side (a concave component side) of a mean line for the roughness profile.
- the Co-Si based copper alloy plate may further comprising a total of 2.0% by mass or less of one or two or more selected from the group consisting of Mn, Fe, Mg, Ni, Cr, V, Nb, Mo, Zr, B, Ag, Be, Zn, Sn ,a misch metal and P.
- Co-Si based copper alloy plate having excellent solder wettability and less pin holes generated when soldering.
- % refers to % by mass, unless otherwise specified.
- the surface roughness Ra is arithmetic mean roughness specified in JIS-B0601 (2001), and the surface roughness Rz is a maximum height roughness specified in the same JIS.
- FIG. 1 shows an example of a production process of a Co-Si based copper alloy plate according to the present invention.
- a copper alloy plate 2 after final heat treating is placed into a pickling tank 4 and is acid pickled, an oxide film is dissolved and thinned almost uniformly in a rolling direction (RD) and a direction transverse to rolling direction (TD). Therefore, a 60 degree specular gloss G(RD) in a rolling direction and a 60 degree specular gloss G(TD) in a direction transverse to rolling direction are almost same after pickling, and a difference ⁇ G(RD) - G(TD) ⁇ nearly equals to 0 (see Fig. 1(a) ).
- a buff 6 is used to grind the copper alloy plate after acid pickling. Grinding mark flaws by buffing are left on a material.
- the rolling direction (RD) that is a rotation direction of the buff 6, as the grinding on a surface of the material proceeds, the oxide film that is not completely dissolved upon acid pickling disappears from the surface of the material, the surface of the material becomes smooth and the G(RD) becomes great.
- TD rolling direction
- the grinding mark flaws by buffing are formed on the surface of the material in the TD direction. A degree of smooth is not largely changed, and the G(RD) is not largely changed. It results in ⁇ G(RD) - G(TD) ⁇ > 0.
- the 60 degree specular gloss reflects a state of the surface of the material having a predetermined area.
- the surface roughness (such as Ra) reflects a state of the surface of the material on a predetermined straight line. It is therefore considered that the 60 degree specular gloss reflects the state of a locally existing oxide film and foreign matters on the surface of the material better than the surface roughness.
- the buff 6 is hollow cylindrical, and grinding grains are attached to the surface thereof.
- a forward direction i.e., a threading direction of the copper alloy plate 2 (from left to right in Fig. 1 )
- the grinding grains of the buff 6 grinds the surface of the copper alloy plate 2. Accordingly, a degree of the oxide film removal by the buffing process can be adjusted by a grain size (count) of respective grinding grains, a threading number of the copper alloy plate 2, a threading speed (line speed), a rotation number of the buff 6 and the like.
- the surface roughness Ra (RD) in the rolling direction is preferably 0.07 ⁇ m or less. If the Ra (RD) is less than 0.07 ⁇ m, the zero cross time may be decreased.
- a peak position in the frequency distribution graph of concave-convex components on the surface in the direction transverse to rolling direction can be specified.
- the frequency distribution graph of the concave-convex components on the surface is identical with that described in Patent Literature 2, and is a plot where a horizontal axis represents a height from a mean line for the roughness profile and a vertical axis represents a frequency (measurement data numbers).
- the horizontal axis is at 0.05 ⁇ m intervals (increments in between) for the mean line for the roughness profile and the measurement data numbers at the intervals are summed up as the frequency to generate the plot.
- the "mean line for the roughness profile" is specified in JIS-B0601.
- the frequency distribution graph is created as follows: (1) Firstly, "the height from a mean line for the roughness profile” is measured along a direction transverse to rolling direction of a sample. In other words, there are provided data of the height from the mean line for the roughness profile (hereinafter referred to as “measurement data” as appropriate) per surface position. The peak position or the like is determined from the resultant measurement data, and the measurement data is numerically treated to calculate Ra and Rz. (2) The height from the "mean line for the roughness profile” is delimited at 0.05 ⁇ m intervals. (3) The measurement data numbers (frequency) are counted at the 0.05 ⁇ m intervals.
- measurement is made at an evaluation lenghth of 1.25 mm, a cut off value of 25 mm (in accordance with JIS-80601) and a scan speed of 0.1 mm/sec.
- a surface roughness meter manufactured by Kosaka Laboratory Ltd. (Surfcorder SE3400) is used.
- the measurement data numbers are 7500 points at an evaluation lenghth of 1.25 mm.
- the method of measuring the peak position is identical with that described in Patent Literature 2.
- the resultant measurement data is categorized as follows: When the height from "the mean line for the roughness profile" is more than 0, the data is categorized as upper (plus) components. When the height is less than 0, the data is categorized as lower (minus) components. Thus, the frequency distribution is plotted. The height ( ⁇ m) from “the mean line for the roughness profile” is replotted on the horizontal axis. The measurement data numbers are replotted as the frequency summed up at 0.05 ⁇ m intervals on the vertical axis. Thus, Figs. 2 and 3 are provided (corresponding to Fig. 3 in Patent Literature 2). In Figs.
- the peak position of the frequency is a concave component (at a minus side), a convex component (at a plus side) or (0).
- the "peak position” is determined as follows: Firstly, from the graphs (see Figs. 2 and 3 ) of a height from "the mean line for a frequency-roughness curve", the frequency having the highest value is denoted as P1 and the frequency having the second highest value is denoted as P2.
- the peak position of the frequency is a concave component (at a minus side).
- the peak position of the frequency is a convex component (at a plus side).
- the peak position of the frequency is 0.
- a line wherein the height from the mean line for the roughness profile being 0 ⁇ m is the mean line for the roughness profile.
- Fig. 2 is a graph replotted by the frequency (%) on the vertical axis and the height ( ⁇ m) from the mean line for the roughness profile on the horizontal axis about actual measurement data in Example 4 described later.
- Fig. 3 is a graph replotted by the frequency (%) on the vertical axis and the height ( ⁇ m) from the mean line for the roughness profile on the horizontal axis about actual measurement data in Example 18 described later.
- the peak position in the frequency distribution graph of the concave-convex components on the surface is at the plus side (a convex component side) of the mean line for the roughness profile.
- Fig. 3 the peak position in the frequency distribution graph of the concave-convex components on the surface is at the plus side (a convex component side) of the mean line for the roughness profile.
- the peak position is at the minus side (a concave component side) of the mean line for the roughness profile.
- a wetting property is good. The wetting property does not depend on the peak position.
- the peak position is in the plus position because an acid pickling solution is changed upon acid pickling.
- the method of measuring the surface roughness Ra, Rz is identical with that described in Patent Literature 2 and measurement is made at an evaluation length of 1.25 mm, a cut off value of 25 mm (in accordance with JIS-80601) and a scan speed of 0.1 mm/sec.

- the composition further includes a total of 2.0% by mass or less of one or two or more selected from the group consisting of Mn, Mg, Ag, P, B, Zr, Fe, Ni, Cr, V, Nb, Mo, Be, Zn, Sn ,and a misch metal. If the total amount of the above element exceeds 2.0% by mass, the following advantages are saturated and the productivity is degraded. However, if the total amount of the element is less than 0.001% by mass, less advantages are provided.
- the total amount of the element is preferably 0.001 to 2.0% by mass, more preferably 0.01 to 2.0% by mass, most preferably 0.04 to 2.0% by mass.
- Ni, Cr, V, Nb, Mo, Be, Zn, Sn and a misch metal are complemented each other, and improve not only strength and electric conductivity, but also production properties such as a stress relaxation property, bending workability, a plating property, and manufacturability such as a hot workability by refining an ingot tissue.

- a solder temperature was 235 ⁇ 3°C.
- a zero cross time refers to a time until a wet stress value becomes zero. The shorter the zero cross time is, the more the solder wets.
- the test was conducted by acid pickling the sample with a solution including 10% by mass of dilute sulfuric acid, and immersing the sample into the above-described solder bath at an immersion depth of 4 mm, an immersion speed of 25 mm/s, an immersion time of 10 sec and 235 ⁇ 3°C in accordance with JIS-C60068-2-54.
- the zero cross time was determined by a meniscograph method. When the zero cross time was 2.0 sec or less, the solder wettability was determined as good.
- Tables 1 to 3 show the results obtained.
- methods A and B refer the buffing with acid pickling under the conditions described below.
- the buffing with acid pickling was conducted before and after the finish rolling.
- the acid pickling solution used for the buffing with acid pickling before the finish rolling was same as the acid pickling solution used for the buffing with acid pickling after the finish rolling discussed above.
- Method A Number of buffing time of 1, threading speed of 40 m/min, buff texture roughnesses (grinding grains) of 1000 counts, and buff rotating number of 500 rpm
- Method B Number of buffing time of 3, threading speed of 10 m/min, buff texture roughnesses (grinding grains) of 2000 counts, and buff rotating number of 1400 rpm
- Example 1 No. Composition (wt%) Production process Buffing Co Si Other component Pretreatment before finish rolling Finish rolling Stress relief annealing Acid pickling Buffing Threading number Threading speed (m/min) Buff texture roughness (counts) Rotation number (/min)

- Example 8 1.50 0.40 - - ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇
- the buffing with acid pickling in each Example was conducted under the conditions: grinding grains of 2000 counts or more, threading time of two or more, threading speed of 10 mpm or less, and rotating number of 1200 rpm or more. It should be appreciated that these optimum ranges are changed depending on a production apparatus.
- a cause of degradation may be that when the buffing with acid pickling was conducted in Comparative Examples 1, 2, 15, 17 and 19, the threading speed exceeded 20 mpm.
- the cause of degradation may be that in Comparative Examples 3, 5, 8 and 20 the threading time was less than two.
- the buffing with acid pickling was conducted using the above-described method A after the final rolling.
- the cause of degradation may be that in Comparative Example 13 no buffing was conducted although acid pickling was conducted.
- Comparative Examples 6 and 7 where the count of the grinding grains used in the buffing with acid pickling was 4000, the grinding grains were too fine to grind, and it is thus considered that Ra(RD) is not so decreased.
- the cause of degradation may be that, in Comparative Examples 11 and 12, the rotating number in the buffing with acid pickling was less than 1200 rpm.
- the grinding grains were coarse and the surface after the buffing with acid pickling became roughened, ⁇ (60 degree specular gloss G(RD) in a rolling direction) - (60 degree specular gloss G(TD) in a direction transverse to rolling direction) ⁇ ⁇ 90%, the pin holes are increased and the zero cross time was bad. It is considered that, since the count of the grinding grains used in the buffing with acid pickling was 500, the grinding grains were too coarse.
- the cause of degradation may be that, in Comparative Examples 4, 14, 16, 18 and 21 where no buffing with acid pickling was conducted after the final rolling, the oxide film on the surface and the foreign matters pushed were not removed and the rolled surface was left as it is.
- Comparative Example 21 was similar to each Example except that the roughness of the mill rolls of the final rolling was finer.
- Comparative Examples 16 and 18 the treatment (acid pickling or degreasing) was conducted before the finish rolling and no buffing with acid pickling was conducted. As a result, the peak position was at the plus side (at the convex component side) of the mean line for the roughness profile (0 position in the frequency distribution graph representing the concave-convex components on the surface). In other words, these Comparative Examples show the copper alloy plate described in Patent Literature 2. In Comparative Examples 4, 13, 16 and 21, the zero cross time exceeded 2.0 sec and the solder wettability was degraded. It is considered that, since no acid pickling and no buffing were conducted, the oxide film remained on the surface of the metal (Comparative Example 16 corresponds to the conditions described in Patent Literature 2).
