Tp. Petrova et al., THE EFFECT OF TRIS(HYDROXYMETHYL)AMINOMETHANE ON THE STABILITY OF CHEMICAL COPPER-PLATING SOLUTIONS AND PROCESS RATE, Protection of metals, 31(4), 1995, pp. 374-376
It has been suggested for the first time to use tris(hydroxymethyl)ami
nomethane (TRIS) for chemical copper plating. TRIS increases the coppe
r deposition rate and stability of solution. An empirical equation has
been derived that enables one to determine the process rate as a func
tion of the temperature and concentration of components.
