  • Publication number: 20240179848
    Abstract: The present invention is directed to provide novel methods for manufacturing laminates. The method includes the steps of: bonding the insulating substrate layer and a copper component having protrusions on a surface thereof; transferring the protrusions to a surface of the insulating substrate layer by peeling off the copper component to form a seed layer; forming a resist on a predetermined area of a surface of the seed layer; plating, with copper, the surface of the seed layer in an area where the resist has not been layered to laminate the copper; removing the resist; and removing the seed layer that has been exposed by the removal of the resist.

  • Patent number: 11958101
    Abstract: A method for manufacturing a forged article, capable of improving the durability of a die for forging is provided. The method, includes forging a steel material, by using a die, by spraying or applying a water-soluble polymer lubricant containing 0.01 to 0.98 mass % of a water-soluble sulfate onto a working surface of the die, the die being made of a raw material having a constituent composition of by mass %, of 0.4 to 0.7% of C, 1.0% or less of Si, 1.0% or less of Mn, 4.0 to 6.0% of Cr, 2.0 to 4.0% of (Mo+½W), 0.5 to 2.5% of (V+Nb), 0 to 1.0% of Ni, 0 to 5.0% of Co, 0.02% or less of N, and a remnant composed of Fe and impurities, and having hardness of 55 to 60 HRC, and the die including a nitrided layer or a nitrosulfidized layer on the working surface thereof.

  • Patent number: 11781236
    Abstract: [Problem] An object is to provide novel composite copper foils. [Means to solve the problem] A composite copper foil comprises a copper foil and a layer of metal other than copper, the metal layer being formed on at least a part of a surface of the copper foil, wherein at least a part of the composite copper foil has protrusions on a surface thereof, and each protrusion has a height of 10 nm or more but 1000 nm or less in a cross-section of the composite copper foil.

  • Publication number: 20230142375
    Abstract: The present invention is directed to provide novel composite copper components. For example, provided is a composite copper component including a copper oxide-containing layer formed on at least a portion of the surface of a copper component, in which when the surface of the composite copper component is bonded to a resin substrate by thermocompression, and the copper component is peeled off from the resin substrate after the thermocompression bonding, metal contained in the copper oxide-containing layer is transferred to the resin substrate.
