Abstract
To make a composite article comprising a copper element and an adhesive material adhesively bonded to a surface thereof, the surface of the copper element is provided with knife-shaped elongate projections whose opposite flanks are at an average angle of less than 60.degree. to each other. The knife-shaped elongate projections may include rod-shaped projections much smaller than the knife-shaped projections projecting outwardly from the surface of the knife-shaped projections. The knife-shaped projections may be formed by electroless plating and the rod-shaped projections by oxidation and optionally reduction. Bonding strength is improved.
