SELECTIVE CATALYTIC ACTIVATION OF POLYMERIC FILMS

摘要

Catalytically inert films comprisingcomplexes of polymer with a compound of a Group 1B orGroup 8 metal at unusually low proportions of metalcan be selectively activated, e.g. to provide acatalytic surface. Such films can be advantageouslyactivatable to electroless deposition, e.g. ofoxidation resistant layers of copper.
