Description

Die Erfindung betrifft ein saures Bad zur galvanischen Abscheidung glänzender, duktiler und eingeebneter Kupferüberzüge und die Verwendung dieser Kombination. Das erfindungsgemäße Bad kann sowohl zur Verstärkung der Leiterbahnen von gedruckten Schaltungen als auch auf dem dekorativen Sektor eingesetzt werden.The invention relates to an acid bath for the electrodeposition of shiny, ductile and leveled copper coatings and the use of this combination. The bath according to the invention can be used both to reinforce the conductor tracks of printed circuits and in the decorative sector.

Es ist seit langem bekannt, daß galvanischen Kupferbädern organische Substanzen zugesetzt werden, um glänzende Abscheidungen zu erzielen. Die zahlreichen für diesen Zweck bereits bekannten Verbindungen, wie zum Beispiel Thioharnstoff, Gelatine, Melasse, Kaffee-Extrakt, "basische" Farbstoffe und Thiophosphorsäureester, besitzen jedoch keinerlei praktische Bedeutung mehr, da die Qualität der mit ihnen erhaltenen Kupferüberzüge - besonders bezüglich des gleichmäßigen Aussehens, der Härte und der Bruchelongation - nicht den heutigen Anforderungen entsprechen.It has been known for a long time that organic substances are added to galvanic copper baths in order to achieve shiny deposits. However, the numerous compounds already known for this purpose, such as, for example, thiourea, gelatin, molasses, coffee extract, "basic" dyes and thiophosphoric acid esters, are no longer of any practical importance since the quality of the copper coatings obtained with them - particularly with regard to their uniform appearance , hardness and elongation at break - do not meet today's requirements.

Zum Stand der Technik zählen Bäder, die eine Mischung von sauerstoffhaltigen hochmolekularen Verbindungen mit organischen, insbesondere aromatischen Thioverbindungen (DE-AS 1521062), enthalten. Diese zeigen aber unbefriegende Ergebnisse bezüglich Metallstreuung und/oder Einebnung.The prior art includes baths which contain a mixture of oxygen-containing high-molecular compounds with organic, in particular aromatic thio compounds (DE-AS 1521062). However, these show unimportant results with regard to metal scattering and / or leveling.

Zur Verbesserung wird in der DE-AS 2039831 ein saures Kupferbad beschrieben, das neben einer polymeren sauerstoffhaltigen Verbindung und einer Thioverbindung mit wasserlösliche Gruppe noch mindestens einen Farbstoff aus der Reihe der polymeren Phenazoniumverbindungen gelöst enthält. Weitere Arbeiten beschreiben die Kombination von organischen Thioverbindungen und polymeren sauerstoffhaltigen Verbindungen mit anderen Farbstoffen wie zum Beispiel Kristall-Violett (EP-PS 071512) oder PhthalocyaninDerivaten mit Apo-Safranin (DE-PS 3420999) oder eine Kombination mit Amiden (DE-PS 2746938).For improvement, DE-AS 2039831 describes an acidic copper bath which, in addition to a polymeric oxygen-containing compound and a thio compound with a water-soluble group, also contains at least one dye from the series of polymeric phenazonium compounds in solution. Further work describes the combination of organic thio compounds and polymeric oxygen-containing compounds with other dyes such as crystal violet (EP-PS 071512) or phthalocyanine derivatives with aposafranine (DE-PS 3420999) or a combination with amides (DE-PS 2746938) .

Nachteilig bei der Verwendung üblicher sauerstoffhaltiger hochmolekularer Verbindungen ist die Stabilität im Elektrolyten. Bei normaler Anwendung Zersetzen sich diese genannten Verbindungen während der Elektrolyse langsam zur wasserunlöslichen Polymeren, die sich immer mehr im Elektrolyten anreichern, an den Wandungen als Gallerte ausrahmen und schließlich auf der Ware selbst ablagern, so daß die Ware mit Fehlstellen behaftet und so unbrauchbar wird. Diese Zersetzung wird extrem verstärkt, wenn die Badtemperatur über 28 °C ansteigt.A disadvantage when using conventional oxygen-containing high molecular weight Connections is the stability in the electrolyte. With normal use, these compounds decompose slowly during the electrolysis to water-insoluble polymers, which accumulate more and more in the electrolyte, frame them as jellies on the walls and finally deposit on the goods themselves, so that the goods become damaged and thus unusable. This decomposition is extremely increased when the bath temperature rises above 28 ° C.

Aufgabe dieser Erfindung ist es, diese Nachteile zu vermeiden.The object of this invention is to avoid these disadvantages.

Diese Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäß durch ein saures Bad gelöst, das mindestens einen Polyalkylenglycoldialkyläther der allgemeinen Formel

enthält, in der n = 8 - 800, vorzugsweise 14 - 90, und m = 0 - 50, vorzugsweise 0 - 20, R¹ ein niedriges Alkyl C₁ bis C₄, R² eine aliphatische Kette oder einen aromatischen Rest und a entweder 1 oder 2 bedeuten .This object is achieved according to the invention by an acid bath containing at least one polyalkylene glycol dialkyl ether of the general formula

Die Menge, in der der Polyalkylengylcoldialkyläther zugegeben werden kann, um eine deutliche Verbesserung der Kupferabscheidung zu erzielen, beträgt etwa 0,005 bis 30 g/Liter; vorzugsweise 0,02 bis 8,0 g/Liter. Die relative Molmasse kann zwischen 500 und 35000 g/mol betragen; vorzugsweise 800 bis 4000 g/mol.The amount in which the polyalkylene glycol dialkyl ether can be added in order to achieve a significant improvement in the copper deposition is approximately 0.005 to 30 g / liter; preferably 0.02 to 8.0 g / liter.

Im allgemeinen wird eine wässrige Lösung folgender Zusammensetzung benutzt: Kupfersulfat (CuSO₄ · 5H₂O) vorzugsweise 20 - 250 g/Liter 60 - 80 g/Liter oder 180 - 220 g/Liter Schwefelsäure vorzugsweise 50 - 350 g/Liter 180 - 220 g/Liter oder 50 - 90 g/Liter Chloridionen vorzugsweise 0,01 - 0,18 g/Liter, 0,03 - 0,10 g/Liter The basic composition of the bath according to the invention can vary within wide limits. An aqueous solution of the following composition is generally used: Copper sulfate (CuSO₄ · 5H₂O) preferably 20 - 250 g / liter 60 - 80 g / liter or 180 - 220 g / liter Preferably sulfuric acid 50 - 350 g / liter 180 - 220 g / liter or 50 - 90 g / liter Preferably chloride ions 0.01 - 0.18 g / liter, 0.03-0.10 g / liter

Anstelle von Kupfersulfat können zumindest teilweise auch andere Kupfersalze benutzt werden. Auch die Schwefelsäure kann teilweise oder ganz durch Fluoroborsäure, Methansulfonsäure oder andere Säuren ersetzt werden. Die Chloridionen werden als Alkali chlorid (z.B. Natriumchlorid) oder in Form von Salzsäure p.a. zugesetzt. Die Zugabe von Natriumchlorid kann ganz oder teilweise entfallen, wenn in den Zusätzen bereits Halogenionen enthalten sind.Instead of copper sulfate, other copper salts can also be used, at least in part. Some or all of the sulfuric acid can be replaced by fluoroboric acid, methanesulfonic acid or other acids. The chloride ions are added as alkali chloride (eg sodium chloride) or in the form of hydrochloric acid pa.

0.01 g / liter polyacrylic acid amide
admitted. At an electrolyte temperature of 30 ° C there are shiny deposits on scraped copper laminate with a current density of 2 A / dm².

Wird nun der Elektrolyt einer Dauerbelastung von 500 Ah/l unterzogen, wobei die während der Elektrolyse verbrauchten Glanzbildner auf Sollwerte ergänzt werden, so zeigt der Elektrolyt am Wannenrand deutliche gallertartige Polymerausrahmungen.If the electrolyte is now subjected to a permanent load of 500 Ah / l, with the brightening agents used during the electrolysis being supplemented to set values, the electrolyte at the tub edge shows clear gelatinous polymer framing.

Setzt man dagegen anstelle des Octyl-polyalkylglycols die erfindungsgemäße Verbindung, Octyl-monomethyl-polyalkylglycols in der gleichen Menge dem Elektrolyten zu, so zeigt der Elektrolyt nach der Alterung keine Polymerausrahmungen.On the other hand, if instead of the octyl polyalkyl glycol, the compound according to the invention, octyl monomethyl polyalkyl glycol, is added to the electrolyte in the same amount, the electrolyte shows no polymer framing after aging.
