Electroplating device
Technical field
The utility model relates to a kind of electroplating device, being particularly related to a kind of macromole gloss-imparting agent that ought act on cathode surface of isolating moves near the insoluble anode, because of oxygen or the cracking of ozone institute that brine electrolysis produces becomes bad sulfide, moved to the electroplating device of cathode surface eutectoid when coating by the insoluble anode surface again.
Background technology
In the electroplating device of printed circuit board (PCB), galvanic anode can be divided into soluble anode and insoluble anode.Soluble anode is with titanium basket dress phosphor-copper piece, wherein several titanium baskets are positioned over both sides in the plating tank respectively, and negative electrode is positioned between two corresponding titanium baskets, when plating tank adding electroplate liquid and after to the anode and cathode energising, the phosphor-copper piece dissociates cupric ion, and reduces copper on negative electrode.
But, in electroplating process,, phosphor-copper piece dissolving makes volume and area dwindle gradually to fail to fill up the titanium basket because of constantly dissociateing cupric ion, and the speed of dissociating of each phosphor-copper piece differs, the phosphor-copper piece replenishes can not intensive at any time operation, this all causes different distribution of current, make the electric field distribution inequality, therefore can influence the homogeneity of electrolytic coating thickness.If electrolytic coating is in uneven thickness, to after processing have disadvantageous effect (for example after etch processes in, can produce the problem of excessive lateral erosion).And can produce copper sludge in the phosphor-copper piece dissolution process, must change bath solution at set intervals and take out copper sludge, increase much more very inconvenience.
Another kind of for insoluble anode is to do anode with titanium or titanium alloy, cupric ion is supplied by the outer mantoquita dissolving tank of plating tank, and the source of cupric ion can be cupric oxide powder and dissolves in the mantoquita dissolving tank and get.Insoluble anode is done and is reticulated flat board, and except that avoiding irregular geometric jacquard patterning unit surface to cause the electric field fringing effect skewness, insoluble anode itself does not participate in the dissolving of copper metal, and it acts on only control current being evenly distributed on cathode surface.Therefore the distribution of current of insoluble anode and electric field distribution manifest quite even with respect to soluble anode, and can produce more uniform electrolytic coating on the surface of the negative electrode parallel with insoluble anode.
Yet, in the electroplating processes of using insoluble anode, produce a large amount of oxygen or ozone on the insoluble anode surface because of the insoluble anode brine electrolysis, and the gloss-imparting agent of electroplate liquid contains a kind of sulfide (for example two sulphur diisopropyl sulfonate sodiums) with unsaturated link(age) usually, when oxygen or ozone touched this gloss-imparting agent, oxygen or ozone can the cracking gloss-imparting agents and produce bad sulfide and pollute electroplate liquid.Shortcomings such as therefore, oxygen or ozone are except that meeting consumes gloss-imparting agent, and the bad sulfide after the gloss-imparting agent cracking can be gone up between the as-reduced copper crystallization at negative electrode (being printed circuit board (PCB)) in eutectoid, and this copper layer that contains sulfide is more crisp, ductility and solderability are not good.
In order to reduce above-mentioned disappearance, in a known solution, be constantly to replenish gloss-imparting agent to electroplate liquid, and replace the electroplate liquid of whole groove at set intervals, yet, except the cost that makes gloss-imparting agent and electroplate liquid greatly improves, also will increase man-hour and produce the environmental issue of handling a large amount of waste liquids.
In another known solution, be that electrodialysis film (or claiming ion-selective membrane) is set between insoluble anode and negative electrode, the electrodialysis film only allows the less negatively charged ion of volume to pass through, and stop bigger positively charged ion or other macromole to pass through, the copper layer that can avoid oxygen or ozone-depleting gloss-imparting agent and infringement to restore thus, yet the price of electrodialysis film is very high, and the copper facing manufacturing cost will significantly be increased.
Therefore, be necessary to provide a kind of electroplating device, to improve the existing problem of prior art.
