  • METHOD FOR METALLIZING INSULATING SUBSTRATES WHEREIN THE ROUGHENING AND ETCHING PROCESSES ARE CONTROLLED BY MEANS OF GLOSS MEASUREMENT
    Publication number: 20090200263
    Abstract: The invention relates to a control of etching processes of insulating substrates by means of gloss measurement. By this method a surface roughness can be achieved which leads to good adhesion of metals layers deposited in subsequent metallization steps. This method is particularly suited for the production of printed circuit boards.
