Abstract A method of forming a corrosion resistant film for a specified image on the surface of a substrate by adding an aliphatic amine such as ethylenediamine, monoethanolamine, diethanolamine triethanolamine to a sensitizing solution composed of water-soluble high molecular compound and ammonium dichromate so as to adjust pH value of the sensitizing solution in the range of 6.1 to 7.8, applying the prepared sensitizing solution to the surface of a substrate of copper or copper alloy, and undergoing each process of drying, exposure and development. After an etching process being applied to the substrate on the surface of which the corrosion resistant film has been formed, the corrosion resistant film is removed to be a finished goods.
A method of forming a corrosion resistant film on the surface of a substrate composed of copper or copper alloy comprising (a) applying to the substrate a solution comprising (i) a film forming amount of a water-soluble high molecular weight compound, (ii) ammonium dichromate in an amount effective to achieve sensitization of the solution, and (iii) an amount of an aliphatic amine sufficient to adjust the pH of said solution to between 6.1 and 7.8; (b) drying the solution-coated substrate such that a photosensitive film is formed on the substrate; (c) exposing the photosensitive film to light; and (d) developing the exposed film so as to form said film for a specified image.
