Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 4
Claim 1
Independent Claim
77 words
A solution for chemically polishing surfaces of copper and its alloys which contains mono- and/or di-substituted alkali metal salts of oxalic acid at a pH value of 3.0 - 5.0 in combination with hydrogen peroxide, at least one stabilizer to stabilize the hydrogen peroxide, said stabilizer being selected from the group consisting of an aliphatic fatty amine of the formula ##STR3## and benzotriazole, and at least one brightener consisting of 0.1 - 5.0 g/l sodium lignin sulphonate.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
77 words
A solution for chemically polishing surfaces of copper and its alloys which contains mono- and/or di-substituted alkali metal salts of oxalic acid at a pH value of 3.0 - 5.0 in combination with hydrogen peroxide, at least one stabilizer to stabilize the hydrogen peroxide, said stabilizer being selected from the group consisting of an aliphatic fatty amine of the formula ##STR3## and benzotriazole, and at least one brightener consisting of 0.1 - 5.0 g/l sodium lignin sulphonate.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
91 words
A process for chemically polishing surfaces of cooper and its alloys comprising introducing the surfaces in a solution containing a mixture of mono- and/or di-substituted alkali metal salts of oxalic acid such that a pH value of 3.0 - 5.0 is maintained, wherein the mixture of oxalates comprises alkali metal oxalates, and alkali metal binoxalates, hydrogen peroxide, at least one stabilizer selected from the group consisting of an aliphatic fatty amine of the formula ##STR4## and benzotriazole, and at least one brightener in which the brightener consists of sodium lignin sulphonate.
