Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the field of electronic circuit materials, and in particular to inverted copper foil and its preparation method, copper-clad laminates and printed circuit boards. Background Technology
[0002] With the rapid development of electronic technology, the demand for high-frequency and high-speed products continues to grow, and the market's requirements for low-signal-loss circuits are becoming increasingly stringent. This places stricter standards on the performance indicators of copper foil on the board surface. Especially in the 5G era, the increasing frequency of signal transmission is driving the continuous reduction of the dielectric layer thickness on mobile terminal PCBs. This change makes the impact of copper foil surface roughness on signal transmission increasingly prominent. During high-frequency signal transmission, the signal is only transmitted within the order of magnitude of the copper foil surface roughness. Fluctuations in surface roughness can cause signal "standing waves" and "reflections," thereby interfering with signal transmission and increasing signal loss. The higher the surface roughness of the copper foil, the longer the actual transmission path of the high-frequency signal, and the greater the signal loss.
[0003] Currently, reverse electrolytic copper foil (RTF copper foil), as an improved copper foil material, enhances the peel strength between the copper foil and the resin substrate through special surface treatment. However, when traditional RTF copper foil is applied to high-frequency, high-speed printed circuit boards, there is still a challenge in balancing peel strength and signal transmission performance. If surface roughness is reduced to ensure signal transmission, the peel strength between the copper foil and the resin substrate will be lower, making the copper foil prone to detachment during subsequent processing or application.
[0004] Therefore, it is necessary to improve traditional technologies. Summary of the Invention

[0029] The second aspect of this application provides a reverse copper foil, one surface of which is a roughened surface. The roughened surface includes a copper nodule-free area, a copper nodule-laying area, and a copper nodule-stacking area. The copper nodule-laying area has 1 to 2 layers of copper nodules, and the copper nodule-stacking area has at least 3 copper nodules stacked. The area of the copper nodule-laying area accounts for 65% to 80% of the total area of the roughened surface.

[0041] The method for preparing the reverse copper foil of this application includes sequentially subjecting the electrolytic copper foil to roughening treatment, curing treatment, and silanization treatment. In the roughening solution, gelatin provides inhibition and leveling effects, preventing the formation of coarse and loose dendrites and establishing the basic "skeleton" of the roughened structure. Dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO), in the inhibitory environment created by gelatin, undergoes fine microscopic adjustment, effectively compensating for insufficient nucleation caused by gelatin by locally promoting the formation of numerous fine crystal nuclei. Potassium ions can affect the adsorption strength and distribution of negatively charged gelatin and polar DMSO, and can improve the conductivity of the roughening solution, thereby enabling gelatin and DMSO to exert their leveling and refining effects. The interaction of DMSO, gelatin, and potassium ions in the roughening solution under appropriate ratios and current densities, combined with a suitable curing solution and current density, promotes the formation of fine crystal nuclei, increases the number of copper nodules per unit area, and improves the density and uniformity of the roughened structure on the copper foil surface.
[0042] The reverse copper foil prepared by the method of this application has high peel strength when bonded to a resin substrate, and when applied to a circuit printed circuit board, it can effectively suppress or reduce the degree of interference loss under high frequency transmission, thereby improving the high frequency signal transmission performance of the reverse copper foil.

[0063] Conventional electrolytic copper foil: During the electrolysis process, copper ions are reduced and deposited on the surface of the cathode roller. The side in contact with the roller surface forms a smooth surface (S surface) due to the high smoothness of the roller surface, while the other side forms a rough surface (M surface) due to the adsorption of additives in the electrolyte and uneven grain growth. In conventional applications, the rough surface is bonded to the resin substrate.
[0064] Reverse copper foil (RTF): The smooth surface is roughened to give it high adhesion to the substrate, allowing for direct attachment of the substrate to this roughened surface without the need for further pretreatment. Because the roughened surface has lower surface roughness, reverse copper foil is easier to etch cleanly when fabricating fine lines, effectively reducing lateral etching and thus improving the fabrication of fine lines and yield.
[0065] Developing a copper foil material that simultaneously achieves low roughness and high peel strength requires not only achieving a low-profile, or even near-profile-less, surface morphology on the copper foil, but also ensuring good adhesion between the copper foil and the substrate. Simultaneously, it's necessary to consider how to improve the peel strength of the copper foil without altering its roughness to meet the demands of high-frequency, high-speed circuit boards. Solving these problems is crucial for enhancing the signal transmission performance and reliability of electronic products under high-frequency transmission conditions.
[0066] One embodiment of this application provides a method for preparing reverse copper foil, comprising the following steps:
[0067] Step S100: Roughen one surface of the electrolytic copper foil to obtain the first copper foil intermediate.
[0068] It is understandable that in step S100, the surface (smooth surface) in contact with the cathode roller of the electrolytic copper foil is roughened.
[0069] In some of these examples, in step S100, the roughening solution used in the roughening process includes copper ions, sulfuric acid, dimethyl sulfoxide, gelatin, and potassium ions.
[0070] In some examples, in step S100, the roughening solution, by mass concentration, comprises: copper ions 10 g / L~15 g / L, sulfuric acid 100 g / L~110 g / L, dimethyl sulfoxide 10 mg / L~30 mg / L, gelatin 20 mg / L~40 mg / L, and potassium ions 50 mg / L~80 mg / L; the current density for the roughening treatment is 30 A / dm³. 2 ~50 A / dm 2 .
[0071] In the roughening solution, the morphology of the roughened structure of electrolytic copper foil can be controlled by combining dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO), gelatin, and potassium ions at appropriate concentrations. First, gelatin provides a macroscopic and strong inhibitory and leveling effect, preventing the formation of large, loose dendrites and laying the basic "skeleton" of the roughened structure. Dimethyl sulfoxide, within the inhibitory environment created by gelatin, performs "microscopic fine-tuning," effectively compensating for insufficient nucleation caused by gelatin by promoting the formation of numerous fine crystal nuclei locally. Gelatin ensures the solidity and uniformity of the roughened structure, while DMSO effectively improves its density and fineness. The synergistic effect of gelatin and DMSO yields surface morphologies including copper nodule stacking zones, copper nodule flattening zones, and copper nodule-free zones, with the copper nodule flattening zone accounting for 65%–80% of the surface area. Meanwhile, the presence of potassium ions alters the charge state of the cathode surface, affecting the adsorption strength and distribution of negatively charged gelatin and polar dimethyl sulfoxide, which is beneficial for the uniform deposition of copper nodules. Furthermore, potassium ions can enhance the conductivity of the roughening solution and improve the uniformity of current distribution on the cathode surface, providing a more ideal "stage" for gelatin and dimethyl sulfoxide to exert their leveling and refining effects. The synergistic effect of gelatin, dimethyl sulfoxide, and potassium ions effectively increases the peak count of the reverse copper foil, reduces its roughness, and effectively improves the adhesion between the reverse copper foil and the substrate.
[0072] High peak count: The combined action of dimethyl sulfoxide and gelatin forms a large number of fine crystal nuclei, resulting in a high number of copper nodules per unit area; Low roughness: The inhibitory and leveling effects of gelatin prevent the nodules from growing indefinitely, while potassium ions ensure overall uniformity and avoid excessive local roughness; Good adhesion: The dense, uniform, and robust coarsened structure provides a large specific surface area and strong mechanical anchoring points, improving the peel strength between the copper foil and the resin substrate.
[0073] It is understood that the mass concentration of copper ions in the roughening solution includes, but is not limited to, 10 g / L, 11 g / L, 12 g / L, 13 g / L, 14 g / L, and 15 g / L; the mass concentration of sulfuric acid includes, but is not limited to, 107 g / L, 108 g / L, 109 g / L, and 110 g / L; the mass concentration of dimethyl sulfoxide includes, but is not limited to, 10 mg / L, 12 mg / L, 15 mg / L, 18 mg / L, 20 mg / L, 22 mg / L, 25 mg / L, 28 mg / L, and 30 mg / L; the mass concentration of gelatin includes, but is not limited to, 20 mg / L, 22 mg / L, 25 mg / L, 28 mg / L, 30 mg / L, 32 mg / L, 35 mg / L, 38 mg / L, and 40 mg / L; and the mass concentration of potassium ions includes, but is not limited to, 50 mg / L, 52 mg / L, 55 mg / L, 58 mg / L, 60 mg / L, 62 mg / L, and 65 mg / L. mg / L, 68 mg / L, 70 mg / L, 72 mg / L, 75 mg / L, 78 mg / L, 80 mg / L. In some examples, any two of these point values can be used as the endpoints within a range, and the same applies below.
[0074] In some examples, in step S100, the roughening solution, by mass concentration, comprises: 10 g / L copper ions, 100 g / L sulfuric acid, 10 mg / L~30 mg / L dimethyl sulfoxide, 20 mg / L~40 mg / L gelatin, and 50 mg / L~80 mg / L potassium ions; the current density for the roughening treatment is 30 A / dm³. 2 ~50 A / dm 2 .
[0075] In some of these examples, in step S100, the mass concentration of potassium ions in the roughening solution is 50 mg / L to 70 mg / L.
[0076] In some of these examples, the current density for the roughening process in step S100 is 35 A / dm. 2 ~45 A / dm 2 It is understood that the current density for roughening treatment includes, but is not limited to, 35 A / dm². 2 36 A / dm 2 37 A / dm 2 38 A / dm 2 39 A / dm 2 40 A / dm 2 41 A / dm 2 42 A / dm 2 43 A / dm 244 A / dm 2 45 A / dm 2 .
[0077] By adjusting the composition, concentration, and current density of the roughening solution, the surface morphology of the electrolytic copper foil is controlled, reducing the surface roughness of the electrolytic copper foil and effectively mitigating the "standing wave" and "reflection" phenomena that occur during high-frequency signal transmission, thereby effectively reducing signal transmission loss.
[0078] It can be understood that the electrolytic copper foil roughened in step S100 is the raw foil.
[0079] In some of these examples, step S100, the preparation of the electrolytic copper foil includes the following steps:

[0082] It is understood that an electric current is applied to the cathode roller and the insoluble anode. In some examples, in step S110, the current density for electrolysis is 60 A / dm³. 2 ~80 A / dm 2 It is understood that the current density during electrolysis includes, but is not limited to, 60 A / dm³. 2 62 A / dm 2 65 A / dm 2 68 A / dm 2 70 A / dm 2 72 A / dm 2 75 A / dm 2 78 A / dm 2 80 A / dm 2 .
[0083] In some of these examples, in step S110, the electrolyte comprises, by mass concentration: 80 g / L to 90 g / L copper ions, 90 g / L to 110 g / L sulfuric acid, 30 mg / L to 50 mg / L dimethyl sulfoxide, 10 mg / L to 20 mg / L gelatin, and 8 mg / L to 15 mg / L chloride ions.
[0084] The method for preparing reverse copper foil provided in this application uses raw materials from the electrolyte used in preparing electrolytic copper foil, except for potassium ions, for the roughening solution used in the roughening treatment. This reduces the problem of mixing and redundant material accumulation caused by a wide variety of raw materials, and facilitates management.
[0085] In some examples, in step S110, the thickness of the electrolytic copper foil is 6 μm to 35 μm. It is understood that the thickness of the electrolytic copper foil includes, but is not limited to, 6 μm, 8 μm, 10 μm, 12 μm, 15 μm, 18 μm, 20 μm, 22 μm, 25 μm, 28 μm, 30 μm, 32 μm, and 35 μm.
[0086] In some of these examples, step S100, prior to the coarsening process, includes:
[0087] Step S120: The electrolytic copper foil is sequentially acid-washed and water-washed.
[0088] It is understood that this application does not limit the pickling and washing methods; conventional methods in the field are sufficient.
[0089] Step S200: The surface of the first copper foil intermediate after roughening is cured to obtain the second copper foil intermediate.
[0090] In some examples, in step S200, the curing solution for the curing treatment, by mass concentration, comprises: 70 g / L to 80 g / L copper ions, 90 g / L to 100 g / L sulfuric acid, and 40 mg / L to 60 mg / L gelatin; the current density for the curing treatment is 15 A / dm³. 2 ~30 A / dm 2 .
[0091] It is understood that the mass concentration of copper ions in the curing solution includes, but is not limited to, 70 g / L, 71 g / L, 72 g / L, 73 g / L, 74 g / L, 75 g / L, 76 g / L, 77 g / L, 78 g / L, 79 g / L, and 80 g / L; the mass concentration of sulfuric acid includes, but is not limited to, 90 g / L, 91 g / L, 92 g / L, 93 g / L, 94 g / L, 95 g / L, 96 g / L, 97 g / L, 98 g / L, 99 g / L, and 100 g / L; and the mass concentration of gelatin includes, but is not limited to, 40 mg / L, 42 mg / L, 45 mg / L, 48 mg / L, 50 mg / L, 52 mg / L, 55 mg / L, 58 mg / L, and 60 mg / L.
[0092] In some of these examples, the current density for the curing process in step S200 is 20 A / dm². 2 ~25 A / dm 2 It is understood that the current density during the curing process includes, but is not limited to, 20 A / dm². 2 21 A / dm 222 A / dm 2 23 A / dm 2 24 A / dm 2 25 A / dm 2 .
[0093] It is understandable that in some of these examples, the roughening and curing processes in the preparation of the reversed copper foil can be repeated once or multiple times, for example, by sequentially performing roughening-curing-roughening-curing-roughening-curing, etc.
[0094] Step S300: Silanize at least one surface of the second copper foil intermediate to obtain a reverse copper foil.
[0095] In some of these examples, in step S300, both sides of the second copper foil intermediate are silanized.
[0096] In some of these examples, the silane coupling agent used in step S300 includes an acrylic-based silane coupling agent.
[0097] In some of these examples, step S300, the silanization process includes the following steps:
[0098] An aqueous solution of silane coupling agent is coated onto at least one surface of the second copper foil intermediate and then dried.
