Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A substrate for a printed circuit board according to an embodiment of the present invention includes a base film and a metal layer disposed on at least one of surfaces of the base film. In the substrate for a printed circuit board, an amount of nitrogen present per unit area, the amount being determined on the basis of a peak area of a N1s spectrum in XPS analysis of a surface of the base film exposed after removal of the metal layer by etching with an acidic solution, is 1 atomic % or more and 10 atomic % or less.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

1 . A substrate for a printed circuit board, comprising a base film; and a metal layer disposed on at least one of surfaces of the base film, wherein an amount of nitrogen present per unit area, the amount being determined on the basis of a peak area of a N1s spectrum in XPS analysis of a surface of the base film exposed after removal of the metal layer by etching with an acidic solution, is 1 atomic % or more and 10 atomic % or less. 2 . The substrate for a printed circuit board according to claim 1 , wherein an amount of silicon present per unit area, the amount being determined on the basis of a peak area of a Si2p spectrum in XPS analysis of the exposed surface of the base film, is 1 atomic % or more and 10 atomic % or less. 3 . The substrate for a printed circuit board according to claim 1 , wherein a ratio of the amount of silicon present per unit area to the amount of nitrogen present per unit area of the exposed surface of the base film is 4 or less. 4 . The substrate for a printed circuit board according to claim 1 , wherein a coupling agent containing nitrogen or a group derived from the coupling agent is present in the vicinity of an interface between the base film and the metal layer. 5 . The substrate for a printed circuit board according to claim 4 , wherein the coupling agent is a silane coupling agent. 6 . The substrate for a printed circuit board according to claim 1 , wherein a surface of the metal layer, the surface being disposed on the base film side, has a ten-point average roughness Rz of 0.01 μm or more and 5.0 μm or less. 7 . The substrate for a printed circuit board according to claim 1 , wherein the base film contains a fluororesin as a main component. 8 . A printed circuit board comprising a base film; and a metal pattern disposed on at least one of surfaces of the base film, wherein an amount of nitrogen present per unit area, the amount being determined on the basis of a peak area of a N1s spectrum in XPS analysis of a surface of the base film exposed after removal of the metal pattern by etching with an acidic solution, is 1 atomic % or more and 10 atomic % or less. 9 . A method for producing a substrate for a printed circuit board, the method comprising: a step of applying a coupling agent containing nitrogen to one of surfaces of a metal layer; a step of stacking a base film on the surface of the metal layer, the surface having the coupling agent applied thereto; and a step of hot-pressing a stacked body of the metal layer and the base film.
