The conventional method for forming patterns on circuit boards is to remove unnecessary copper foil by photo-etching a so-called copper-clad laminate, in which copper foil with a thickness of 18 microns or 35 microns is pasted on the surface of glass epoxy resin, etc. The parts were removed to form the required electrical circuit pattern.

This method requires a lot of processing time because the photo-etching process requires photoresist coating, setting with a photomask, exposure, development, and drying, and as a result, the unit price of the circuit board was extremely high. . Another conventional method is to form the outline of the circuit board by transfer molding, then roughen the surface by honing or using a strong oxidizing agent such as chromium mixed acid, and then perform activation treatment and electroless plating. However, there is a so-called agitative method in which a circuit pattern is formed by photo-etching. This method has many quality problems due to poor adhesion between the electroless plating and the substrate. In order to eliminate the above-mentioned drawbacks, it is an object of the present invention to provide a pattern forming method for a circuit board that can be easily mass-produced by using a photopolymerizable resin for a board having an outer shape formed thereon.

FIG. 1 shows a substrate 1 manufactured by transfer molding or injection molding. This substrate 1 may be pressed out of glass epoxy or the like, and its outer shape is processed. The cross section of this substrate 1 is as shown in FIG. This substrate 1 is set on a jig 2 in the direction shown in FIG. 2, and immersed in an epoxy photopolymerizable resin. As a result, the entire surface is covered with the photopolymerizable resin 3 as shown in FIG. 2C. When the photopolymerizable resin is uniformly coated with a Whaler or coated with a roll coater, the surface becomes smooth and a circuit pattern with high commercial value can be obtained. Next, ultraviolet rays are irradiated using an exposure machine having an optical system as shown in FIG.

This exposure machine places a photomask 10 with a necessary pattern between a lens system 8 and a light source 9, sets the substrate 1 on the image area of the photo mask 25 connected through the optical system, and exposes it to ultraviolet rays. Harden the ivy pattern.
Since this exposure machine has no parts that come into contact with the photopolymerizable resin, there is no possibility that the photopolymerizable resin will adhere to the apparatus. After exposure, the surface of the substrate 1 has a hardened portion 30 as shown in FIG.
An uncured portion 5 is formed. Next, the substrate 1 that has undergone these steps is placed in an atmosphere in which a conductive substance such as carbon powder or copper powder is suspended, and powder 6 of carbon, copper, etc. is applied to the uncured portion 5 as shown in FIG. Make it adhere. Other powders may be used as the carbon powder 35 or copper powder, as long as they serve as the core for growing electroless plating in the subsequent process. Next, it is placed in a place where it can be heated, such as a dryer, to harden the photopolymerizable resin in the uncured portions.

By heating and curing, the carbon powder and copper powder are bound to the photopolymerizable resin and become the core that forms the plating in the next electroless plating. Next, carbon powder, copper powder, etc. from unbound areas are thoroughly removed by spraying water or using a brush, and the material is immersed in an electroless plating bath. Therefore, the second
A plating film 7 is deposited as shown in the figure. Electroless plating gave good results with copper or nickel. Further, plating such as gold plating is performed to complete a circuit board having a pattern having an electric circuit on the board as shown in FIG. ? As described above, according to the present invention, a circuit pattern can be formed in a simple process, the formed pattern has good adhesion to the substrate, and inexpensive and high-quality circuit boards can be mass-produced.
