IMPROVED PLATING PERFORMANCE USING COMBINATION METAL OXIDE AND METAL POWDER AS ADDITIVES

摘要

The present disclosure relates to blended thermoplastic compositions comprising: a) from about 20 wt % to about 80 wt % of a polycarbonate polymer component; b) from about 5 wt % to about 30 wt % of a polycarbonate-polysiloxane copolymer component; c) from about 1 wt % to about 20 wt % of a laser direct structuring additive component; and d) from about 0.02 wt % to about 5 wt % of a metal component; wherein the combined weight percent value of all components does not exceed about 100 wt %; and wherein all weight percent values are based on the total weight of the composition.
