Abstract

PURPOSE:To increase the rate of precipitation and also to improve the copper luster of deposited copper by incorporating hydroxyethylethylenediamine triacetate into a electroless copper plating bath. CONSTITUTION:An electroless copper plating bath has a basic composition in which hydroxyethylethylenediamine triacetate (HEDTA) is incorporated into an aqueous solution containing copper salt, complexing agent for copper salt, alkali hydroxide, and reducing agent for copper salt. It is preferable that the mole ratio of HEDTA to copper complexing agent is regulated to about 1/100-8/100, and it is also preferable to regulate the operating temp. of the plating bath to 50-85 deg.C. Since this electroless copper plating bath is capable of providing plating copper improved in the rate of precipitation and excellent in luster, it can be widely used in the fields of the metallization of plastics as well as printed circuit boards.

The electroless copper plating solution is an aqueous solution containing a copper salt, an SV4 complexing agent, an alkali hydroxide, and a reducing agent such as formaldehyde or hydrogen boron. Deposited copper obtained from such known plating solutions generally exhibits a dark red color and has a relatively slow deposition rate compared to electrolytic copper plating.If the concentration is increased or the temperature is increased to increase the deposition rate, There was a drawback that the plating solution was unstable. As a method for improving such plating solutions, Japanese Patent Publication No. 56-504 describes
It is mentioned that a carbonaceous surfactant is added to the plating solution.
