Abstract

An electroless nickel plating is used as a primer for electroplating of copper. Preferably, electroless nickel plating is conducted after the surface of aluminum is subjected to nickel substitution with a nickel salt under a strongly acidic condition (pH: 1 or less). More preferably, the nickel substitution is carried out after the oxide film on the surface of aluminum is removed.
