Flexible printed circuit boards are used in printers, hard disk drives, etc. of office automation equipment and electronic equipment.

By the way, recently, for the purpose of downsizing the device, the curvature is 5 to 1.
It is desired to develop a flexible printed circuit board having a bending fatigue life of 10'-109 times in the range of 5 mm, and therefore a copper foil having a bending fatigue life of 10' to 109 times is required. This is because the bending fatigue life of an insulating film made of polyimide or the like is significantly longer than that of copper foil, and the bending fatigue life of the entire flexible printed circuit board is determined by the copper foil. In addition, the i-th foil is required to be hard so that it can be easily handled when laminated onto an insulating film, and to have a low softening temperature so that it softens after being heated and hardened to improve the above-mentioned flexural fatigue life. There is.

The bending fatigue life was measured using a testing device as shown in the figure. Here, to briefly explain the test apparatus, a vibration transmission member 3 that transmits the vibration in the direction of the arrow is connected to the oscillation drive body 4, and a sample copper plate fixed to the fixing plate 2 via screws 2a is connected to the tip of the vibration transmission member 3. The end of the foil 1 has a predetermined curvature R and is fixed while being bent into a hairpin shape. The test conditions at this time were: sample width: 10 mm, curvature R: 5 mm, vibration stroke H: 10 mm, vibration frequency: 25 Hz, and number of measurements under the same conditions (N): 6. From the results in the table, in the case of the same working degree, the softening temperature is
G, H), the tough pitch copper of the comparative example (sample B), and the oxygen-free copper of the comparative example (sample 11hA), the bending fatigue life was lower in the order of the oxygen-free copper of the present invention (sample N [LF, G,
H), Tough pitch copper of comparative example (sample NaB),
It can be seen that the values increase in the order of oxygen-free copper (sample N [lA) of the comparative example]. Furthermore, in the case where the final degree of cold working is 90% or less, the flexural fatigue life is not improved even if the phosphorus content is in accordance with the present invention, and the flexural fatigue life is 90% or less when the degree of cold working is 90% or less. It can be seen that by doing the above, there is a rapid improvement. Furthermore, the data shown in the table above is 250
This is after heating for 1 hour at 130°C to 170°C when processing flexible printed circuit boards.
Since it is heated at a low temperature of ~24 hr, the oxygen-free copper of the comparative example (sample floor 2) has not completely softened, and the flexural fatigue life value is lower than the value shown in the table, but compared to other samples. The lifespan shown in the table is obtained.
