Civen Metal Material (Shanghai) Co., Ltd. is one of the leading manufacturers and suppliers of anti-oxidation treated ra copper foil in China. Welcome to buy bulk durable anti-oxidation treated ra copper foil made in China here from our factory. If you have any enquiry about cooperation, please feel free to email us.
Anti-Oxidation Treated RA (Rolled-Annealed) Copper Foil is a high-purity metal substrate engineered for dynamic flex circuits and high-temperature lamination. CIVEN Metal applies a proprietary inorganic passivation layer directly onto the cleaned copper surface immediately following the final cold-rolling and annealing pass. This ultra-thin (under 15nm) barrier film prevents cuprous oxide formation during multi-cycle pressing and high-temperature storage without altering electrical conductivity or chemical etching kinetics.
Key Material
Base Material: Cu-ETP (Electrolytic Tough Pitch) or Cu-DHP copper with a purity >= 99.90%.
Microstructure: Fully recrystallized equiaxed grain structure oriented along the rolling direction for fatigue resistance under cyclic bending.
Surface Treatment: Passivated chromium-zinc or organic-inorganic hybrid barrier coating (<= 15nm).
Substrate Compatibility: Direct lamination with polyimide (PI), polyethylene terephthalate (PET), and liquid crystal polymer (LCP) films using acrylic, epoxy, or modified silicone adhesives.
Performance Features
Thermal Oxidation Resistance: Withstands 180°C for 120 minutes in atmospheric conditions without discoloration, scaling, or contact resistance increase.
Dynamic Flexural Endurance: Survives over 150,000 MIT folding cycles at a 0.8mm bend radius before fatigue fracturing.
Peel Strength Stability: Maintains initial peel strength >= 0.8 N/mm on standard PI films after 72 hours at 85°C and 85% relative humidity prior to etching.
Etching Uniformity: Controlled grain boundary distribution ensures clean, undercut-free line edge definitions down to 20um line/space (L/S) geometries using alkaline cupric chloride or ferric chloride etchants.
Electrical Conductivity: Bulk electrical resistivity below 1.724 x 10^-8 Ohm*m (100% IACS) at 20°C.

Manufacturing & Quality Control
Quality Management: Produced under ISO 9001:2015 and IATF 16949 certified quality systems.
Cold Rolling: Multi-stage Z-mill passes reduce high-purity copper cathodes to target gauge with controlled dimensional reduction per pass.
Controlled Atmosphere Annealing: Continuous strand annealing in a hydrogen-nitrogen protective furnace to relieve stress and control grain size.
Surface Passivation: Inline electrochemical or chemical treatment depositing the uniform anti-oxidation molecular layer.
Slitting & Edge Trimming: Precision rotary shear slitting eliminating burrs and edge waviness.
Inspection Protocols:
Pinhole Detection: Continuous optical scanning across the entire master coil length.
Mechanical Testing: Tensile and elongation verification on outer and inner turns of every master roll.
Traceability: Laser-etched lot IDs on every master roll linked to raw material Mill Test Certificates (MTC).
