Description

本発明は、無電解パラジウムめっき又は無電解パラジウム合金めっきの前処理用活性化液、及び該活性化液を用いる無電解パラジウムめっき又は無電解パラジウム合金めっき方法に関する。   The present invention relates to an activation liquid for pretreatment of electroless palladium plating or electroless palladium alloy plating, and an electroless palladium plating or electroless palladium alloy plating method using the activation liquid.

従来から、エレクトロニクス関連分野において、コネクター、リードフレームなどへの機能性薄膜の形成方法として、無電解ニッケルめっき皮膜上に無電解金めっき皮膜を形成する無電解ニッケル/金めっき処理が広く応用されている。近年、プリント配線板の高密度化、表面実装基板(独立回路基板)の増加等に伴い、プリント配線板の銅回路表面の酸化を防止して良好なはんだ接続性能を発揮させることや、半導体パッケージとその上に実装される電子部品とのワイヤーボンディング性を向上させることなどを目的として、無電解ニッケルめっきを行った後、無電解パラジウムめっきを行い、その後無電解金めっきを行う、無電解ニッケル/パラジウム/金めっき処理が増加している(下記特許文献1参照)。   Conventionally, in the field of electronics, as a method of forming a functional thin film on a connector, a lead frame, etc., an electroless nickel / gold plating process for forming an electroless gold plating film on an electroless nickel plating film has been widely applied. Yes. In recent years, with the increase in the density of printed wiring boards and the increase in surface mount boards (independent circuit boards), it is possible to prevent the copper circuit surface of printed wiring boards from being oxidized and to exhibit good solder connection performance. Electroless nickel plating, followed by electroless palladium plating, followed by electroless gold plating for the purpose of improving wire bonding between the device and the electronic components mounted on it. / Palladium / gold plating treatment is increasing (see Patent Document 1 below).

今後、プリント配線板の更なるファインパターン化が予想されるが、上記した無電解ニッケル/パラジウム/金めっき処理を行う場合には、素材銅の状態や前処理(脱脂、エッチング)の程度によって、無電解パラジウムめっきの析出性が不十分となり易く、カバーリング性能が劣化してはんだ接合強度が低くなることがあるという問題点がある。   In the future, further fine patterning of printed wiring boards is expected, but when performing the above electroless nickel / palladium / gold plating treatment, depending on the state of the material copper and the degree of pretreatment (degreasing, etching), There is a problem in that the deposition property of electroless palladium plating tends to be insufficient, the covering performance is deteriorated, and the solder joint strength may be lowered.

また、セラミック基板においては、銀ペーストや銅ペーストが回路の配線に用いられており、この様な回路を形成したセラミック基板に対しても、同様に無電解ニッケル/パラジウム/金めっき工法が検討されている。この場合にも、やはり、素材の状態や前処理の影響によって無電解パラジウムめっきの析出性が低下することがある。このため、上記した材料に対しても、無電解パラジウムめっきの析出性を向上させることができる前処理方法が要求されている。   In addition, silver paste and copper paste are used for circuit wiring in ceramic substrates, and electroless nickel / palladium / gold plating methods are similarly examined for ceramic substrates on which such circuits are formed. ing. In this case as well, the depositability of the electroless palladium plating may deteriorate due to the condition of the material and the effect of the pretreatment. For this reason, the pre-processing method which can improve the depositability of electroless palladium plating is requested | required also with above-described material.

以下、本発明の無電解パラジウムめっき又は無電解パラジウム合金めっきの前処理用活性化液について、具体的に説明する。   Hereinafter, the pretreatment activation liquid for electroless palladium plating or electroless palladium alloy plating of the present invention will be specifically described.

前処理用活性化液
本発明の無電解パラジウム又はパラジウムめっきの前処理用活性化液は、還元剤を有効成分として含有する水溶液である。
Pretreatment activation liquid The electrolysis palladium or palladium plating pretreatment activation liquid of the present invention is an aqueous solution containing a reducing agent as an active ingredient.

還元剤としては、還元作用を有する水溶性化合物であれば、特に限定無く使用できる。特に、自己触媒型の無電解めっき液に配合される還元剤であれば、後工程で用いる無電解パラジウムめっき浴又は無電解パラジウム合金めっき浴に対する悪影響が少ない点から好適であり、後工程で用いる無電解パラジウムめっき浴又は無電解パラジウム合金めっき浴に配合される還元剤と同一の還元剤を用いることが特に好ましい。   As the reducing agent, any water-soluble compound having a reducing action can be used without particular limitation. In particular, a reducing agent blended in an autocatalytic electroless plating solution is suitable because it has little adverse effect on the electroless palladium plating bath or electroless palladium alloy plating bath used in the post-process, and is used in the post-process. It is particularly preferable to use the same reducing agent as that used in the electroless palladium plating bath or electroless palladium alloy plating bath.

この様な還元剤の具体例としては、次亜リン酸塩(アンモニウム、カリウム、ナトリウム塩など)、ジメチルアミンボラン、水素化ホウ素ナトリウム、亜リン酸塩(アンモニウム、カリウム、アンモニウム塩など)、ギ酸塩(アンモニウム、ナトリウム、カリウム、カルシウム塩など)等を挙げることができる。これらの還元剤は、一種単独又は二種以上混合して用いることができる。   Specific examples of such reducing agents include hypophosphites (ammonium, potassium, sodium salts, etc.), dimethylamine borane, sodium borohydride, phosphites (ammonium, potassium, ammonium salts, etc.), formic acid. Examples thereof include salts (ammonium, sodium, potassium, calcium salts, etc.). These reducing agents can be used singly or in combination of two or more.

本発明の活性化液における還元剤の濃度については特に限定はないが、例えば、0.05〜200g/L程度とすることが好ましく、0.1〜150g/L程度とすることがより好ましい。還元剤の濃度が低すぎる場合には、無電解パラジウムめっきの析出性を向上させる効果が十分には発揮されず、一方、還元剤の濃度が高すぎる場合には、特に問題はないが、使用量の増加に見合う効果が得られないので、不経済である。   Although there is no limitation in particular about the density | concentration of the reducing agent in the activation liquid of this invention, For example, it is preferable to set it as about 0.05-200 g / L, and it is more preferable to set it as about 0.1-150 g / L. If the concentration of the reducing agent is too low, the effect of improving the deposition properties of the electroless palladium plating is not sufficiently exhibited. On the other hand, if the concentration of the reducing agent is too high, there is no problem. Since an effect commensurate with the increase in amount cannot be obtained, it is uneconomical.

本発明の活性化液のpHについては、特に限定はないが、水洗を行うことなく、引き続き無電解パラジウムめっき又は無電解パラジウム合金めっきを行うので、使用するめっき液のpHに近いpH値とすることが好ましい。   The pH of the activation liquid of the present invention is not particularly limited. However, since electroless palladium plating or electroless palladium alloy plating is subsequently performed without washing with water, the pH value is close to the pH of the plating liquid to be used. It is preferable.

本発明の活性化液には、該活性化液の特性に悪影響を及ぼさない限り、他の成分が含まれていてもよい。例えば、界面活性剤を添加することによって、被処理物に対する活性化液の濡れ性を向上させて、処理効率を上げることができる。   The activation liquid of the present invention may contain other components as long as the characteristics of the activation liquid are not adversely affected. For example, by adding a surfactant, the wettability of the activation liquid with respect to the object to be processed can be improved and the processing efficiency can be increased.

According to the above, efficient processing is possible.

浸漬法によって処理を行う場合には、例えば、20〜80℃程度の活性化液中に、被処理物を30秒〜10分程度浸漬すればよい。   In the case of performing the treatment by the dipping method, for example, the treatment object may be dipped in an activation solution at about 20 to 80 ° C. for about 30 seconds to 10 minutes.

For example, treatments such as degreasing and etching can be performed as necessary. In addition, when a metal having no catalytic activity for electroless palladium plating is to be treated, after applying a catalyst such as Pd by a known method such as a sensitizer / activator method or a catalyst method, What is necessary is just to perform the activation process by the activation liquid of this invention.

Plating is performed. Thereby, it is possible to form a palladium or palladium alloy plating film having excellent precipitation and excellent covering properties. Further, by using the activation liquid of the present invention, a good palladium or palladium alloy plating film can be formed even when electroless palladium plating or electroless palladium alloy plating is directly performed on a copper material.

この方法で形成される無電解パラジウムめっき皮膜又はパラジウム合金めっき皮膜は、従来の方法で得られる皮膜と比較して、ピンホールが少ない良好なめっき皮膜であり、はんだ接合強度が高い皮膜となる。銀ペーストや銅ペーストによる導体回路を形成したセラミック基板に処理を行う場合にも、良好な析出性やはんだ接合強度を得ることが出来る。   The electroless palladium plating film or palladium alloy plating film formed by this method is a good plating film with few pinholes and a film with high solder joint strength as compared with a film obtained by a conventional method. Even when processing is performed on a ceramic substrate on which a conductor circuit is formed using silver paste or copper paste, good precipitation and solder joint strength can be obtained.

Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in more detail with reference to examples.
Example 1
As an object to be processed, an independent circuit board in which a pad portion (BGA pattern) made of copper was formed on a resin base material was used. FIG. 1 shows a schematic plan view of an object to be processed. There are two types of diameters of the pad portion: 0.2 mm and 0.6 mm.

まず、上記した被処理物に対して、樹脂基板用の前処理剤を用いて、脱脂、エッチング及びパラジウム触媒の付与を行い、次いで、市販の無電解ニッケルめっき液(奥野製薬工業製:ICPニコロンSOF)を用いて、厚さ約5μmのニッケルめっき皮膜を形成した。   First, degreasing, etching, and application of a palladium catalyst are performed on the object to be processed using a pretreatment agent for a resin substrate, and then a commercially available electroless nickel plating solution (Okuno Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd .: ICP Nicolon). Using SOF), a nickel plating film having a thickness of about 5 μm was formed.

次いで、下記表1及び表2に示す各活性化液に1分間浸漬後、水洗を行うことなく、表3に示す無電解パラジウムめっき液に浸漬して、厚さ約0.2μmのパラジウムめっき皮膜を形成した。   Next, after immersing in each of the activation liquids shown in Tables 1 and 2 for 1 minute, without being washed with water, it was immersed in an electroless palladium plating solution shown in Table 3 to give a palladium plating film having a thickness of about 0.2 μm.

(3)はんだ接合強度
パッド径0.6mmのBGA搭載用パターン部分について、無電解パラジウムめっき皮膜上に、市販の無電解金めっき液(奥野製薬工業製:フラッシュゴールド330)を用いて厚さ約0.03μmの金めっき皮膜を形成した。その後、Sn−3Ag−0.5Cuのはんだボールを搭載し、リフロー装置にて加熱した後、常温式はんだボールプル試験装置を用いてはんだ接合強度を測定した。1条件につき20個測定し、その平均値で評価を行った。尚、活性化処理を行っていない試験片については、無電解パラジウムめっきが析出した箇所についてのみ上記した方法ではんだ接合強度を測定した。
About each sample obtained by the above-mentioned method, the external appearance, precipitation property, and solder joint strength of the electroless palladium plating film were evaluated by the following method. The results are shown in Table 4 below.
(1) Precipitation appearance The appearance of the palladium plating film was visually evaluated.
(2) Precipitation About the pattern part for BGA mounting with a 0.6 mm diameter pad diameter, the number of electroless palladium plating deposits per 20 pads was visually counted to evaluate the precipitation.
(3) Solder joint strength About a BGA mounting pattern part with a pad diameter of 0.6 mm, a commercially available electroless gold plating solution (manufactured by Okuno Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd .: Flash Gold 330) is used on the electroless palladium plating film. A 0.03 μm gold plating film was formed. Then, after mounting a solder ball of Sn-3Ag-0.5Cu and heating with a reflow device, the solder joint strength was measured using a room temperature type solder ball pull test device. Twenty pieces were measured per condition, and the average value was evaluated. In addition, about the test piece which has not performed the activation process, the solder joint strength was measured by the above-mentioned method only about the location which electroless palladium plating deposited.

実施例2
実施例1で用いたものと同じ銅によるパッド部(BGAパターン)を形成した独立回路基板を被処理物として用い、実施例1と同様にして、樹脂基板用の前処理剤を用いて脱脂、エッチング及びパラジウム触媒付与を行った後、無電解ニッケルめっきを行うことなく、上記表1及び表2に示す実施例1で用いた各活性化液に1分間浸漬後、水洗を行うことなく、表3に示す無電解パラジウムめっき液に浸漬して、厚さ約0.2μmのパラジウムめっき皮膜を形成した。
Example 2
Using an independent circuit board in which the same pad portion (BGA pattern) made of copper as that used in Example 1 was formed as an object to be processed, degreasing using a pretreatment agent for a resin substrate as in Example 1 After performing etching and palladium catalyst application, without electroless nickel plating, after immersion for 1 minute in each activation solution used in Example 1 shown in Tables 1 and 2 above, without washing with water, 3 was immersed in an electroless palladium plating solution to form a palladium plating film having a thickness of about 0.2 μm.

一方、比較試験として、上記した方法と同様にして脱脂、エッチング及びパラジウム触媒付与を行った後、活性化処理を行うことなく、表3に示す無電解パラジウムめっき液に直接浸漬して、パラジウムめっき皮膜を0.2μm形成した。   On the other hand, as a comparative test, after degreasing, etching and applying a palladium catalyst in the same manner as described above, the palladium plating was performed by directly immersing in the electroless palladium plating solution shown in Table 3 without performing the activation treatment. A film having a thickness of 0.2 μm was formed.

以上の試験は、樹脂基材の銅パッド部分に直接無電解パラジウムめっきを行う際の本発明の活性化液の有効性を評価するものである。   The above test evaluates the effectiveness of the activation liquid of the present invention when performing electroless palladium plating directly on the copper pad portion of the resin substrate.

実施例1と同様にして、無電解パラジウムめっき皮膜の外観、析出性、及びはんだ接合強度を評価した。結果を下記表5に示す。   In the same manner as in Example 1, the appearance, depositability, and solder joint strength of the electroless palladium plating film were evaluated. The results are shown in Table 5 below.

以上の実施例1及び実施例2の結果から明らかなように、BGA基板に対して、無電解ニッケルめっきを行った後、無電解パラジウムめっきを行う場合及びBGA基板の銅素材上に直接無電解パラジウムめっきを行う場合のいずれの場合にも、無電解パラジウムめっきを行う前に、本発明の活性化液を用いて活性化処理を行うことによって、無電解パラジウムめっき皮膜の外観及び析出性が良好となり、はんだ接合強度についても向上することが確認できた。 As is clear from the results of Examples 1 and 2 above, the electroless nickel plating is performed on the BGA substrate, and then electroless palladium plating is performed. In any case of performing palladium plating, before the electroless palladium plating is performed, the appearance and precipitation of the electroless palladium plating film is good by performing the activation treatment using the activation liquid of the present invention. Thus, it was confirmed that the solder joint strength was also improved.

実施例3
被処理物として、セラミックスからなる基材上に、印刷法によって銀ペーストによるパターンを形成した基板を用いた。図2に被処理物の概略の平面図を示す。
Example 3
As the object to be processed, a substrate in which a pattern made of silver paste was formed on a base material made of ceramics by a printing method was used. FIG. 2 shows a schematic plan view of the workpiece.

まず、上記した被処理物に対して、セラミックス用の前処理剤を用いて、脱脂、エッチング及びパラジウム触媒の付与を行い、次いで、市販の無電解ニッケルめっき液(奥野製薬工業製:NNPニコロンLTC)を用いて、厚さ約5μmのニッケルめっき皮膜を形成した。   First, degreasing, etching, and application of a palladium catalyst are performed on the above-described object to be processed using a pretreatment agent for ceramics, and then a commercially available electroless nickel plating solution (Okuno Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd .: NNP Nicolon LTC) ) Was used to form a nickel plating film having a thickness of about 5 μm.

次いで、上記表1及び表2に示す実施例1で用いた各活性化液に1分間浸漬後、水洗を行うことなく、実施例1の表3に示す無電解パラジウムめっき液に浸漬して、厚さ約0.2μmのパラジウムめっき皮膜を形成した。   Next, after immersing in each activation solution used in Example 1 shown in Table 1 and Table 2 for 1 minute, without rinsing, it was immersed in the electroless palladium plating solution shown in Table 3 of Example 1, A palladium plating film having a thickness of about 0.2 μm was formed.

一方、比較試験として、上記した方法と同様にして無電解ニッケルめっきを5μm施した後、水洗を1分間行い、活性化処理を行うことなく、表3に示す無電解パラジウムめっき液に浸漬して、パラジウムめっき皮膜を0.2μm形成した。   On the other hand, as a comparative test, 5 μm of electroless nickel plating was applied in the same manner as described above, followed by washing with water for 1 minute and immersion in the electroless palladium plating solution shown in Table 3 without performing activation treatment. Then, 0.2 μm of a palladium plating film was formed.

以上の試験は、セラミック基材上の銀ペーストによるパターン部分に形成したニッケルめっき皮膜上に、無電解パラジウムめっきを行う際の本発明の活性化液の有効性を評価するものである。   The above test evaluates the effectiveness of the activation liquid of the present invention when electroless palladium plating is performed on a nickel plating film formed on a pattern portion of a silver paste on a ceramic substrate.

上記した方法で得られた各試料について、実施例1と同様にして、パラジウムめっき皮膜の析出外観及び析出性を評価した。析出性については、パッド20個当たりの無電解パラジウムめっきが析出した個数を目視でカウントして評価した。結果を下記表6に示す。   About each sample obtained by the above-mentioned method, it carried out similarly to Example 1, and evaluated the precipitation external appearance and precipitation property of the palladium plating film. Precipitation was evaluated by visually counting the number of deposits of electroless palladium plating per 20 pads. The results are shown in Table 6 below.

実施例4
実施例3で用いたものと同じ銀ペーストによるパターンを有する基板を被処理物として用い、実施例3と同様にして、セラミックス用の前処理剤を用いて脱脂、エッチング及びパラジウム触媒付与を行った後、無電解ニッケルめっきを行うことなく、上記表1及び表2に示す各活性化液に1分間浸漬後、水洗を行うことなく、表3に示す無電解パラジウムめっき液に浸漬して、厚さ約0.2μmのパラジウムめっき皮膜を形成した。
Example 4
A substrate having the same silver paste pattern as used in Example 3 was used as an object to be processed, and degreasing, etching, and palladium catalyst application were performed using a pretreatment agent for ceramics in the same manner as in Example 3. Then, after immersing in each activation solution shown in Table 1 and Table 2 for 1 minute without performing electroless nickel plating, and immersing in electroless palladium plating solution shown in Table 3 without washing with water, A palladium plating film having a thickness of about 0.2 μm was formed.

一方、比較試験として、上記した方法と同様にして脱脂、エッチング及びパラジウム触媒付与を行った後、活性化処理を行うことなく、表3に示す無電解パラジウムめっき液に直接浸漬して、パラジウムめっき皮膜を0.2μm形成した。   On the other hand, as a comparative test, after degreasing, etching and applying a palladium catalyst in the same manner as described above, the palladium plating was performed by directly immersing in the electroless palladium plating solution shown in Table 3 without performing the activation treatment. A film having a thickness of 0.2 μm was formed.

以上の試験は、セラミックス基材上に形成した銀ペーストパターン部分に直接無電解パラジウムめっきを行う際の本発明の活性化液の有効性を評価するものである。   The above test evaluates the effectiveness of the activation liquid of the present invention when performing electroless palladium plating directly on the silver paste pattern portion formed on the ceramic substrate.

実施例3と同様にして、無電解パラジウムめっき皮膜の外観及び析出性を評価した。結果を下記表7に示す。   In the same manner as in Example 3, the appearance and depositability of the electroless palladium plating film were evaluated. The results are shown in Table 7 below.

Figure 0005990789

以上の実施例3及び実施例4の結果から明らかなように、セラミックス基材上に形成した銀ペーストパターン部分に対して、無電解ニッケルめっきを行った後、無電解パラジウムめっきを行う場合及び銀ペーストパターン部分に直接無電解パラジウムめっきを行う場合のいずれの場合にも、無電解パラジウムめっきを行う前に、本発明の活性化液を用いて活性化処理を行うことによって、無電解パラジウムめっき皮膜の外観及び析出性が良好となることが判る。 As is clear from the results of Example 3 and Example 4 above, the electroless nickel plating is performed on the silver paste pattern portion formed on the ceramic substrate, and then the electroless palladium plating is performed. In any case where the electroless palladium plating is directly applied to the paste pattern portion, the electroless palladium plating film is obtained by performing the activation treatment using the activation liquid of the present invention before the electroless palladium plating. It turns out that the external appearance and precipitation of this are good.
