Definitions
- This invention relates to the electrodeposition of copper from an aqueous acidic bath and more particularly concerns the utilization of selected addition agents to aqueous acidic baths for the purposes hereinafter stated.
- the primary object of this invention is to decrease the grain size and increase the luster of the copper deposit without materially imparing the ductility of the plate or decreasing the current density range of the acidic copper plating bath.
- R1 and R2 may be hydrogen, methyl or ethyl radicals
- X is an anion selected from the group consisting of chloride, bromide, iodide, fluoride, sulfate, bisulfate and nitrate
- Z is an aromatic radical selected from the group consisting of phenyl, naphthyl, and phenyl and naphthyl radicals substituted with amino, alkyl substituted amino, hydroxy and alkoxy substituent groups.
- the anion X is relatively unimportant and in addition to the anions above given may be any one of a wide variety of other anions, including organic anions such as formate, acetate, propionate, etc. It will be appreciated that the compounds represented by the above formula, when present in an acid copper bath, are highly ionized substances and the anion X is in ionic admixture with the other anions of the bath such as the sulfate anion, the nitrate anion, etc. It is believed that the diamino phenylphenazonium nucleus or ion is the dominant contributor to the beneficial effects of decreasing the grain size without materially impairing ductility of the plate which is obtained from the presence in the bath of any of the compounds of Formula A.
- the phenyl or naphthyl radicals be substituted with amino or alkyl substituted amino groups, that the alkyl groups be either methyl or ethyl groups, and that the alkoxy group be methoxy or ethoxy; and for best bath life it is preferable to maintain a concentration of chloride, or its equivalent in bromide or iodide, of about .003 to about .020 gram/liter in the solution. It is to be understood that when X is either fluoride, sulfate, bisulfate or nitrate, that chloride, bromide or.
- iodide ions in an amount equivalent to about .003to .020 gram/liter of chloride is preferably present in addition.
- 2,707,166 Patented Apr. 26, 1955 contains a sutficient halide concentration, but it is usually preferable to replenish the halide during use in order to maintain the preferred minimum concentration of about .003 gram/liter of chloride or its equivalent.
- Janus Green B is the dye commercially known as Janus Green B.
- Janus Green B is sometimes designated Dia zine Green (Schultz #282) and chemically it may be designated briefly as diethyl-safranine-aZo-dimethyl-aniline.
- Another preferred example which is not generally as commercially available as Janus Green B, is represented by the above formula wherein R1 is hydrogen and R2 is a irfethyl radical, that is, dimethyl safranine azo dimethyl ani me.
- the extremely useful addition agents represented by Formula A which efiectively accomplish the above stated object may, in general, be classified as the product of the coupling reaction of a diazotized amino phenazine with phenol, naphthol or aryl amino compounds including the alkyl substitution products of phenol, naphthol, or aryl amino compounds.
- Janus Green B which is a diazotized amino phenazine coupled with dimethyl aniline, may be replaced by a diazotized amino phenazine coupled with other amino compounds such as substituted diethyl anilines and naphthylamines.
- the total concentration of the mixed dye in the acidic aqueous bath preferably approximates the concentration of any component as indicated in Table 1.
- Janus Green B may be mixed with Janus Black in a total concentration corresponding approximately to the concentration for either Janus Green B or Janus Black as given in Table 1.
- concentrations of the dyes of Table 1 falling within the range of .005 to .04 gram/liter represent preferred quantities.
- Janus Green B is commercially available in approximately 50% dye strength in admixture with an inorganic salt, but it is to be understood that the concentrations set forth herein and in the appended claims refer to dye strength.
- composition of the acidic copper bath may vary over rather wide limits, although for the best grain refinement, rate of brightening and for the widest bright plating range, the following composition, designated Formula taining proportions of addition agents indicated in Table 1 include controlled temperatures, bath agitation and cathode current densities.
- the bath temperatures may be from about 17 C. to 40 C. (approximately 70 F. to F.). Warmer temperatures above 40 C. tend to decrease the brightness of the plate, but temperatures up to 50 C. may be used satisfactorily.
- Cathode agitation and preferably uniform air agitation is desirable.
- dm. may be satisfactorily employed with the particular current density depending primarily upon the degree of agitation of the cathode film and the shape of the article to be plated.
- an average cathode current density of 30-50 amps/sq. ft. may be used.
- Formula B may include other ions for the purpose of increasing the conductivity of the solution such as sodium, potassium or ammonium ions. These ions are usually present in only minor concentrations.
- the copper sulfate of Formula B may be replaced by copper nitrate in approximately equivalent proportions, and when acidified with small amounts of phosphoric acid, nitric acid or sulfuric acid, the beneficial effect of reducing the grain size and increasing the luster of the deposit by additions of small concentrations of compounds of the type shown in Table 1 is also evident.
- the degree, however, of grain size, reduction and increase in luster is somewhat less extensive than is produced from the use of acidic baths made up primarily of copper sulfate.
- the beneficial effect of reducing the grain size and increasing the luster of the deposit by additions of small concentrations of compounds of the type shown in Table 1 is also evident.
- the degree, however, of grain size, reduction and increase in luster is somewhat less extensive than is produced from the use of acidic baths made up primarily of copper sulfate.
- the copper sulfate of Formula B may be replaced by copper nitrate in approximately equivalent proportions, and when acidified with small amounts of phosphoric acid, n
- copper sulfate or copper nitrate concentration in the bath may satisfactorily vary from as low as about 100 grams/liter up to saturation. Concentrations of acid above the equivalent in acidity of about 80-100 grams/ liter of sulfuric acid decrease the brightening effect of the addition agents represented by Formula A and are therefore to be avoided.
- wetting agents may be advantageously present in the baths of this invention.
- the surface-active compounds, sodium decyl sulfate and the sulfated mono-ethylene oxide condensate of decyl alcohol when present in small concentrations of about .01 to .06 gram/liter are effective in decreasing pitting and striation formation in the deposit due to the presence of harmful organic compounds or excessive concentrations of brighteners.
- These wetting agents normally cause excessive frothing with air agitation, but in the presence of the addition agents of Table l, the frothing is minimized.
- Example I CuSOaSHzQ 200 grams/liter. H2804 15 grams/liter. Janus Green B .003 gram/ liter. Temperature 70-95 F. Cathode current density 30-40 amps./ sq. ft.
- Example II CuSO4.5HzO 200 grams/liter. H2804; 15 grams/liter. Janus Black .01 gram/liter. Temperatureun 7090 F. Cathode current density 30.40 amps./ sq. ft.
