BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION In recent years, electroless copper plating solutions have been widely used in the fields of printed wiring board manufacturing and plastic metallization. Electroless copper plating solution contains copper salt, copper complexing agent, alkali hydroxide,
and an aqueous solution containing formaldehyde, hydrogen borohydride, etc. as a reducing agent. The deposited copper obtained from such a known plating solution exhibits a dark red color at -m and is similar to electrolytic copper (
When compared, the mechanical strength is also inferior. Furthermore, the plating solution is difficult to use because fine copper particles are generated during the plating reaction and gradually decompose naturally. Such deterioration of copper color tone and natural decomposition phenomenon tend to be further accelerated when the plating solution is recycled and used, making it difficult to repeatedly recycle and use the plating solution. To solve this problem, Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 52-21226 discloses a method of adding allyl alcohol to this type of plating solution to improve the elongation of deposited copper, and Japanese Patent Publication No. 46-2161 discloses describes adding dipyridyl and phenanthroline additives to the plating solution.

Problems to be Solved by the Invention However, in all of the above methods, the stability of the plating solution is not sufficient, and especially when the plating solution is recycled and used repeatedly, natural decomposition becomes noticeable. The color of the deposited copper also had the problem of becoming darker each time it was regenerated.

Function: The electroless copper plating solution of the present invention containing the above-mentioned additives has the following properties:
The synergistic effect of the additives is exhibited, making it possible to significantly increase the number of times the plating solution can be recycled. Further, the copper deposited from the regenerated bath has a copper luster almost comparable to that of the copper deposited from a newly prepared plating bath. Furthermore, even in a regenerated bath that has been regenerated several times, spontaneous decomposition is extremely small (and workability is good. This is done when the copper plating solution has run out, and the consumed components of the plating solution, such as copper salt, formaldehyde, and alkali hydroxide, are replenished by analyzing them, and these are added to the initial state at the time of bath construction. At this time, complexing agents and additives such as EDTA do not directly participate in the plating reaction and are not consumed, and in particular, there is no need to replenish them.
