The invention discloses a method for manufacturing a flexible circuit board with the line spacing smaller than or equal to 40 micrometers. High-density circuit manufacturing is achieved through whole-process technology optimization. A low-
copper-tooth
copper-clad plate is selected, and the precision of a base material is improved through
UV laser drilling and nanoscale
carbon film black shadow treatment; a high-resolution dry film is combined with LDI
exposure and dynamic
light intensity compensation, edge hardening is carried out after development is carried out in cooperation with a phenolic resin
ethanol solution, and the
adhesive force of the dry film is enhanced; and film stripping adopts a two-
step method of hydrothermal solution alkali soaking and mechanical spraying,
internal stress is eliminated by combining gradient heating baking, and then
copper reduction is performed. The flexible circuit board can effectively solve the problems that in the prior art, a dry film is prone to falling off,
electroplating film clamping occurs, the dry film falls off in the developing process, the film stripping phenomenon is incomplete in the film stripping process, copper is left in the line spacing, line edge burrs exist, and the like, the manufacturing precision and the yield of the flexible circuit board are improved, environmental
pollution is reduced, and the production cost is reduced. And high-efficiency production of the high-density and high-reliability flexible circuit board is realized.
