Problems solved by technology

However, due to the limitations of the calendering process, the thinner and wider it is, the harder it is to produce, and the scrap rate is high. Due to the limited width, it is difficult to meet the production of rigid copper clad laminates.
However, the electrolytic copper foil prepared by the electrolytic method has poor ductility and cannot be bent, and is mainly used for the production of rigid copper-clad laminates; and the environmental protection problem is also the biggest problem for the electrolytic copper foil. The industrial electrolytic copper foil production consumes a lot of water (per ton of electrolytic Copper foil consumes about 140-150m of pure water 3 ), the electrolytic copper foil sewage produced is seriously polluted, the treatment is difficult, and the treatment investment cost is high. It is one of the difficult problems in the production of environmental protection departments and electrolytic copper foil manufacturers in all countries in the world.

Abstract

The invention discloses a method for preparing a copper film through controlled atmosphere cold spraying. The method comprises the steps that firstly, original copper powder is conveyed into a powder oxygen content control unit, copper oxide on the surfaces of copper powder particles is reduced into copper, and the oxygen content of the copper powder is reduced; secondly, the copper powder treated through the powder oxygen content control unit is conveyed into a powder granularity control and powder feeding unit, the input copper powder is scattered and screened, and the granularity of the output copper powder particles is controlled within the set range; thirdly, the copper powder treated in the second step is conveyed into a cold spraying nozzle in a controlled oxygen partial pressure cavity; and fourthly, the speed and temperature of the copper powder particles are regulated and controlled through a gas pressure, flow and temperature control unit, and the copper powder particles in the controlled oxygen partial pressure cavity collide with base body depositions to form the copper film. The film obtained through the method is dense in structure and low in oxygen content, the conductivity is not lower than 80% that of corresponding component dense block materials, and the film is superior to a traditional electrolysis or copper electroplating film in the aspects of environment protection and cost.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of copper thin film preparation technology and controlled atmosphere cold spraying, in particular to a method for preparing copper thin film by controlled atmosphere cold spraying. Background technique [0002] Copper has good electrical and thermal conductivity and is often used in electronic or power equipment. Due to the needs of process requirements or cost control, copper mainly exists in the form of copper film in many places, such as electroplating a layer of copper film on the surface of aluminum alloy and other metals to increase the conductivity and welding characteristics of the material, or using copper foil in copper clad laminates. Applications as key materials, etc. However, there are problems such as high energy consumption and pollution of electroplating waste liquid in the electroplating process of electroplating copper film on the metal surface. As for the copper foil used in the preparation of co...
