Electroless Copper Plating on Polyester Fabric Modified with Silane through Supercritical Carbon Dioxide Process

Article Preview

Abstract:

Polyester fabric was pretreated with 3-aminopropyltrimethoxysilane (APTMS) through supercritical carbon dioxide (scCO2) process before electroless copper plating. APTMS pretreated polyester fibers were characterized by contact angle. Deposit weight, surface morphology and electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding effectiveness (SE) of electroless copper plated polyester fabrics were investigated. The results show that polyester fibers are covered with APTMS after APTMS modification in scCO2 medium. Copper coatings on the polyester fibers are uniform after copper plating. Electromagnetic interference shielding effectiveness of the copper plated polyester fabric arrives at 60-80dB at frequencies ranging from 2 to 18 GHz.
