Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

An aluminum foil having a high adhesiveness to solder and containing at least one of Sn and Bi, in which a ratio of a total mass of Sn and Bi to a total mass of the aluminum foil is 0.0075 mass % or more and 15 mass % or less.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. Aluminum foil consisting of pure aluminum and at least one of Sn and Bi, a ratio of a total mass of Sn and Bi to a total mass of the aluminum foil being 0.0075 mass % or more and 15 mass % or less; a ratio of a total surface area of Sn and Bi to a total surface area of the aluminum foil is 0.01% or more and 65% or less, and the ratio of the total surface area is 5 times or more a ratio of a total volume of Sn and Bi to a volume of Al. 2. The aluminum foil according to claim 1 , wherein the aluminum foil is tempered in a range from O to 1/4H as defined in JIS-H0001. 3. The aluminum foil according to claim 1 , wherein the aluminum foil is aluminum foil for soldering. 4. An electronic component wiring board manufactured using the aluminum foil according to claim 1 . 5. A method of manufacturing the aluminum foil according to claim 1 , wherein, the method comprises the steps of: preparing aluminum molten metal; adding at least one of Sn and Bi to the aluminum molten metal to produce a molten metal mixture in which a ratio of a total mass of Sn and Bi is 0.0075 mass % or more and 15 mass % or less; forming an ingot or a casting plate using the molten metal mixture; rolling the ingot or the casting plate to manufacture aluminum foil in which the ratio of the total mass of Sn and Bi is 0.0075 mass % or more and 15 mass % or less, the aluminum foil being tempered in a range from 3/4H to H as defined in JIS-H0001; and subjecting the aluminum foil to a heat treatment at a temperature of 230° C. or more so as to be tempered.
