Abstract

Abstract The copper-foiled laminated sheet of the invention is used to prepare a printed circuit sheet having see-throughness after patterning by etching of the copper foil. Different from conventional copper-foiled laminates using an electrolytic copper foil having a surface roughness of 10 or larger, the inventive laminate is prepared using a rolled copper foil having a surface roughness of 1.5 to 5 so that the surface of the adhesive layer, from which the copper foil has been removed by etching, has no undue roughness as a replica of the copper foil surface not to irregularly diffuse the light giving a parallel light-beam transmission of at least 50% and overall light transmission of at least 70% to ensure good see-through visibility.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 3
Claim 1
Independent Claim 128 words
A copper-foiled laminated sheet for flexible printed circuit sheet which comprises a flexible and transparent base film of an electrically insulating plastic resin, a layer of an adhesive and a rolled copper foil adhesively bonded to the base film with the layer of the adhesive intervening therebetween, the surface of the copper foil adhesively bonded to the base film having a surface that has been subjected to a treatment with low temperature plasma of an inorganic gas prior to adhesive bonding with the copper foil and having a surface roughness in the range from 1.5 to 5 according to the standard specified in JIS B 0601 and the laminated sheet, after the copper foil has been removed by etching, having at least a 60% parallel light beam transmission.
