The present invention relates to a 
copper foil having a primer resin layer which improves the 
adhesive strength between a 
copper foil surface without roughening treatment and a substrate resin and a laminated sheet using the same and is characterized by using a 
polyimide represented by the following formula (1):(wherein, R1 represents a quadrivalent aromatic group which is a residual group of a 
dicarboxylic acid dianhydride ingredient (
pyromellitic acid anhydride, 3,3′,4,4′-biphenyltetracarboxylic acid dianhydride, 3,3′,4,4′-benzophenontetracarboxylic acid dianhydride or 2,3,6,7-naphthalenetetracarboxylic acid dianhydride), R2 represents a 
divalent aromatic group which is a residual group of a 
diamine ingredient (1,3-bis-(3-aminophenoxy)
benzene, 3,3′-diamino-4,4′-dihydroxydiphenylsulfone or / and 4,4′-diamino-3,3′,5,5′-tetraethyldiphenylmethane), and n1 represents a repeating number) as a primer resin; and 
copper foils and laminated sheets having said 
polyimide layer as a primer have high 
adhesive strength and are suitable for flexible printed wiring boards.
