Abstract

Adhesion of copper to a resin layer is improved by reducing a copper oxide layer with an aqueous aldehyde solution (a) while applying a potential of -1000 mV to -400 mV to the copper oxide layer, (b) after contacting with a metal piece made of copper or a metal nobler than copper, or (c) after contacting with an aqueous solution of alkali borohydride.
