During the electroless copper plating process, it is crucial to improve the bonding of the plated layer to the substrate, which not only concerns the performance of the product, but also directly affects its service life and reliability. In this issue, we will take a closer look at how to achieve this goal from several aspects and how it can be solved through the use of electroless copper plating solutions.

Importance of substrate pretreatment

Pre-treatment of the substrate is the first step to improve the bonding of the plating. before electroless copper plating of PET plastics, surface activation treatment is required to enhance the wettability of the plating layer with the substrate to improve the bonding.

Similarly, for other substrates such as alumina ceramics, specific pre-treatment processes such as roughening, sensitizing, and activating steps are required to improve the hydrophilicity and roughness of the surface and to ensure that the plating layer adheres firmly to the substrate.

Selection and optimization of electroless copper plating solution

Choosing the right electroless copper plating solution is also key. Bigely electroless copper plating solution HS-ECu-801 performs well in this aspect. This plating solution has the advantages of stable process, long bath life, fast deposition speed and uniform layer distribution. According to the practical application experience, HS-ECu-801 plating solution can improve the bonding strength between the plated layer and the substrate, thanks to its optimized plating solution composition and process conditions. 

Bigely electroless copper plating solution HS-ECu-801 performs well in improving the bonding strength of the plated layer due to its stable process performance and fast deposition speed. In practical applications, we can choose the right pretreatment process and additive formulation according to the specific needs and conditions to get the right plating quality and bonding force.
