Was this a tough question? I didn't receive but one
response. Thanks Rudy.
Eddie:
Not clear I can "explain" something which is likely
incorrect.
If your vendors start with Cr +6, the likelihood of there
being zero Cr+6 on the foil is near zero... certainly some
of the Cr +6 reacts with Copper metal Cu0 to form Cr+3 and
Cu+2, but all of it? Hah... dream on.
However, before you go off and begin screaming, I suspect
strongly that some producers of foil may well be switching
from Cr+6 to zero Cr coating... I cannot fathom why
organics could not do as good a job...
And if there are foil producers who need some technology to
assist this change, contact me... :-)

copper foils are protected with chromates
(Cr6) prior to producing laminate. Since this is an RoHS
banned substance I need to understand why all my laminate
suppliers have certified their material to be RoHS
compliant.
One supplier responded by stating that Cr6 is reduced to a
state of Cr3 or Cr0 which is not a restricted substance.
Can somebody explain how it goes from a state of Cr6 to one
of the reduced states and why sometimes Cr3 versus Cr0?
Thank you,
