Abstract:
A method of manufacturing an aluminum substrate for printed circuits, comprises an oxide layer forming step and a heat-drying step. At the oxide layer forming step, an anodic oxide layer is formed on at least one surface of an aluminum plate by anodizing the aluminum plate in an electrolytic solution of phosphoric acid concentration: 3 to 20 mass% and bath temperature: not less than 25 ° C but less than 40 ° C. At the heat-drying step, the anodic oxide layer is dried by heating it at 150 to 300 ° C for 0.5 hour or more. According to this method, a proper oxide layer can be formed, resulting in an aluminum substrate for printed circuits capable of enhancing adhesiveness to a resin plate.
