This invention provides a copper foil for a printed wiring board, which comprises a copper foil, an alloy layer (A) comprising copper, zinc, tin and nickel which is formed on a surface of the copper foil, said surface to be brought into contact with a substrate for a printed wiring board, and a chromate layer which is formed on a surface of the alloy layer (A). The copper foil for a printed wiring board has the following features: even if a printed wiring board is produced using a long-term stored copper foil, the interface between the copper foil and the substrate is only slightly corroded with chemicals; even if the copper foil contacts a varnish containing an organic acid, e.g., a varnish for an acrylic resin, in the formation of a copper-clad laminate, the bond strength is sufficient. Even if a printed circuit board made by using the copper foil is placed in a high temperature environment, e.g., in an engine room of an automobile, for a long period of time, blistering of the copper circuit from the substrate due to deterioration of the interface between the copper circuit and the substrate does not take place. <IMAGE> |
