A leadframe for use with integrated circuit chips comprising a base metal, usually copper or a copper alloy, having a modified surface adapted to provide bondability and solderability and adhesion to polymeric compounds. The modified surface comprises a layer created by converting a percentage of base metal atoms into substitutional metal complexes, usually hydrated chromates. A thin layer of plated copper may be employed for controlling uniformity and consistency of the replacement reaction.
