A web support with a high degree of patterning freedom and excellent durability, a production method therefor, and a patterning method. The web support is used when applying a pattern to a nonwoven substance by jetting a high-pressure water stream on a web. The web support production method comprises: a step of preparing a flat metal base material; a step for forming, by etching, a first water conduction hole and second water conduction hole that pass through the front surface of the base material to the back surface, and a recess on the front surface of the base material that includes the first water conduction hole and that corresponds to the pattern; and a step for forming the base material into a cylindrical main body section by welding the edges of the base material to each other.

A metallic stamp and die for the craft industry comprises a predetermined acid-etched design on a surface of a metallic plate. A first layer of a metallic paint is applied over the front and back surfaces of the metallic stamp and die. A second layer of a rubber paint is applied over the metallic paint. The metallic paint facilitates bonding of the rubber paint to the metallic plate and increases the life of the coating of the rubber paint. The rubber paint is configured to absorb and store an ink and facilitate transfer of the ink to one or more substrates, thus enabling stamping of the design on the substrate. The metallic die can be configured for a plurality of uses, such as embossing, cutting, heat-foiling, stamping, scoring, and inserting patterns or designs in a plurality of substrates.

The present application provides a method for improving a pit defect formed after a copper electroplating process, comprising: forming a dielectric layer on a wafer; etching the dielectric layer to form a trench; forming a seed barrier layer on the surface of the trench; pre-cleaning the wafer to increase the wetness of the trench on the wafer; filling the trench with copper by means of electroplating; polishing the upper surface of the trench to planarize the upper surface of the trench. The wetness of the wafer surface can be increased by pre-cleaning a via. An excessively dry wafer surface leads to a poor wetness effect when the wafer enters water, a bubble is difficult to be discharged, a void is easy to be generated in electroplating. By the pre-cleaning step, the problem of a poor wetness effect occurring when the wafer enters water can be effectively improved.
