Abstract

A substrate for a printed circuit board includes a base film having a main surface and an electrically conductive layer disposed on the main surface. The base film is made of a fluororesin. The electrically conductive layer is a layer including a plurality of electrically conductive particles bonded together. An amount of nitrogen present in the main surface is 0.2 atomic percent or more.
