摘要:
A process for metal plating plastic or elastomeric materials which produces a coating of high conductivity which does not reduce over time is disclosed in this application to provide electro-magnetic interference shielding for said materials. This process uses either a particular special plating bath containing stabilizer additions with any surface preparation technique, or a certain specific surface preparation technique along with the use of a standard plating bath or the special stabilized plating bath to obtain metal coatings with the desired properties.
摘要:
A simple and highly effective process for preparing the surface and plating a plastic or elastomer material is disclosed by the present invention.A uniform, highly adherent metal layer is deposited by the claimed process. The surface of the materials to be plated is prepared by exposure to a gas etch atmosphere and activation of the etched surface by providing a metal colloid thereon. Another aspect relates to the use of a one-step or two-step conditioner treatment in the process for improved results.After the surface preparation and activation, a desired metal coating can be electroless metal plated in a conventional manner.

摘要:
A process for applying a metal coating to a non-conductive substrate without an electroless coating is disclosed. The process includes the step of: a. contacting said substrate with an activator comprising a noble metal/Group IVA metal sol to obtain a treated substrate; b. contacting said treated substrate with a self accelerating and replenishing immersion metal composition comprising a solution of (i) a soluble metal salt whose metal is more noble than said Group IVA metal, (ii) a Group IA metal hydroxide, (iii) a complexing agent comprising an organic material having a cumulative formation constant log K of from about 0.73 to about 21.95 for an ion of the metal of said metal salt. The Group IVA metal is employed in a stoichiometric excess compared to the noble metal, the excess Group IVA metal being in its lowest oxidation state. Self accelerating and replenishing non-formaldehyde immersion metal compositions are also disclosed. The composition is used in a two step process to electrolytically coat a nonconductive substrate. In the first step the conductivity of the substrate is increased by applying the composition to it. In the second step, the substrate treated with the composition is electrolytically coated with a metal.

The invention relates to a method for high speed palladium electroplating by immersing the object to be plated in an ammoniacal solution of a palladium tetra-amino complex ion, palladium metal in a concentration of at least 10 g/l, and at least one carbonate or phosphate anion in a concentration of more than about 7.5 g/l and less than about 150 g/l. The solution has a pH of between about 7 and 9 and is free of quaternized pyridinium brightening agents. Palladium is plated into a substrate with high speed plating equipment which provides sufficient agitation, and current densities of 100 ASF and above to produce lustrous crack free deposits.

A high current density electrogalvanizing process and composition are disclosed for reducing high current density dendrite formation and edge burn and controlling high current density roughness, grain size and orientation of a zinc coating obtained from a zinc sulfate aqueous acidic electrogalvanic coating bath. The composition comprises a high molecular weight polyoxyalkylene glycol grain refining agent in combination with a sulfonated condensation product of naphthalene and formaldehyde which is used as an antidendritic agent.
摘要:
A high current density electrogalvanizing process and composition are disclosed for reducing high current density dendrite formation and controlling high current density roughness, grain size and orientation of a zinc coating obtained from an acidic aqueous zinc salt. The process comprises adding a sulfonated condensation product of naphthalene and formaldehyde to the acidic aqueous zinc salt in an electrolytic cell and applying an electromotive force to the anode and cathode in the cell sufficient to produce a high current density on the cathode. The composition consists essentially of an acidic aqueous zinc salt aqueous in combination with a sulfonated condensation product of naphthalene and formaldehyde which is used as an antidendritic agent.
