ABSTRACT:
There is disclosed a treating process whereby the thermal oxidation resistance on the shiny side of a copper foil is enhanced so that the shiny side will not discolor on heating to higher temperatures than usual, without impairing the foil's solder wettability, adhesion to resist, and other properties. A Zn-Ni alloy layer which comprises 50-97 wt % Zn and 3-50 wt % Ni or a Zn-Co alloy layer which comprises 50-97 wt % Zn and 3-50 wt % Co is formed on the shiny side of a copper foil at a deposition quantity of 100-500 .mu.g/dm.sup.2 and then the alloy surface is treated for Cr-base corrosion-preventive coating. The Cr-base corrosion-preventive treatment comprises (1) a treatment for forming a coating film of chromium oxide alone, (2) a treatment for forming a mixed coating film of chromium oxide and zinc and/or zinc oxide or (1)+(2). The roughened side of the copper foil may be treated to form thereon a layer of single metal or alloy of two or more metals chosen from among Cu, Cr, Ni, Fe, Co, and Zn. The shiny side does not cause discoloration upon exposure to high-temperature conditions of 240.degree. C. for 30 minutes or 270.degree. C. for 10 minutes.
