Definitions

  • the present application relates to an electroless copper plating solution, particularly to a reducing electroless copper plating solution used in a neutral range.
  • an electroless copper plating solution that uses formaldehyde as a reducing agent for copper ions.
  • formaldehyde has an irritating odor that deteriorates the working environment and causes adverse effects on the human body.
  • the electroless copper plating solution using formaldehyde is strongly alkaline, and thus the use of the electroless copper plating solution is difficult especially when the object to be plated is aluminum, aluminum alloy, or the like.
  • Patent Literature 1 discloses “an electroless copper plating bath having a pH of 4 to 9, containing a water-soluble copper salt, amino borane or a substituted derivative thereof as a reducing agent, and no formaldehyde, the electroless copper plating bath containing polyaminopolyphosphonic acid as a complexing agent, an anionic surfactant, an antimony compound, and a nitrogen-containing aromatic compound”.
  • the first problem is that if the electroless copper plating bath disclosed in Patent Literature 1 is left in a plating bath for a long time after use, copper tends to deposit on the bottom of the bath, stirring jigs, and the like, resulting in a high tendency to have a lack of solution stability as a plating solution;
  • the second problem is that an electroless copper plating layer formed using the electroless copper plating bath disclosed in Patent Literature 1 tends to have a non-uniform appearance;
  • the third problem is that when plating is performed on an aluminum material using the electroless copper plating bath disclosed in Patent Literature 1, the copper plating layer tends to swell even if the aluminum itself is not damaged, resulting in a tendency for pits to occur.
  • an object of the present application is to provide an electroless copper plating solution with excellent solution stability and easy composition control, which does not cause the above-mentioned problems.
  • the electroless copper plating solution according to the present application is a reducing electroless copper plating solution used in a neutral range that contains a copper salt serving as a copper ion supply source, a complexing agent for chelating copper ions, a reducing agent, a surfactant, an aromatic compound containing nitrogen, and contains a tellurium compound serving as a deposition stabilizer, and that has a solution pH of 6 to 9.

  • Reducing agent Various reducing agents can be used for copper ions. In the case of the electroless copper plating solution according to the present application, however, since it is used in the neutral range, it is preferable to use amine borane or a derivative thereof as a reducing agent usable in the neutral range in order to ensure the solution stability. More specifically, any one or more of dimethylamine borane, diethylamine borane, tert-butylamine borane, triethylamine borane, trimethylamine borane, and the like can be used.
