Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A surface treated copper foil 1 includes a copper foil 2, and a first surface treatment layer 3 formed on one surface of the copper foil 2. The first surface treatment layer 3 of the surface treated copper foil 1 has L* of a CIE L*a*b* color space of 44.0 to 84.0. A copper clad laminate 10 includes the surface treated copper foil 1 and an insulating substrate 11 adhered to a surface of the surface treated copper foil 1 opposite to the first surface treatment layer 3.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. A surface treated copper foil comprising a copper foil, a first surface treatment layer formed on one surface of the copper foil, wherein the first surface treatment layer comprises a Zn deposited amount of 200 to 600 μg/dm 2 , a Cr deposited amount of 10 μg/dm 2 or more, and a Ni deposited amount of 30 to 200 μg/dm 2 , and a second surface treatment layer to be adhered to an insulating substrate, formed on the other surface of the copper foil, wherein the first surface treatment layer comprises L* of a CIE L*a*b* color space of 44.0 to 84.0, and the second surface treatment layer comprises a surface roughness Sa of 0.05 to 0.40 μm. 2. The surface treated copper foil according to claim 1 , wherein the L* of the first surface treatment layer is from 74.0 to 84.0. 3. The surface treated copper foil according to claim 1 , wherein the first surface treatment layer comprises a Cr deposited amount of 10 μg/dm 2 or more. 4. The surface treated copper foil according to claim 1 , wherein the first surface treatment layer comprises a Ni deposited amount of 30 to 200 μg/dm 2 . 5. The surface treated copper foil according to claim 1 , wherein the second surface treatment layer comprises a Ni deposited amount of 20 to 200 μg/dm 2 . 6. The surface treated copper foil according to claim 1 , wherein the second surface treatment layer comprises a Zn deposited amount of 20 to 1,000 μg/dm 2 . 7. A copper clad laminate comprising the surface treated copper foil according to claim 1 , and an insulating substrate adhered to the second surface treatment layer of the surface treated copper foil. 8. A printed circuit board comprising a circuit pattern formed by etching the surface treated copper foil of the copper clad laminate according to claim 7 .
