Abstract
Although metallizing of nonconductive surfaces dates from the old Egyptian civilization from which archaeological examples of metallized wood and terra cotta have been found [1], the fastest development of plating on plastics has come within the last ten years [2]. Several developments have emerged in polymer technology, in the processing of plastics, and most important, in the chemical technology of polymer treatments and the electroless plating process.Keywords
