Abstract: A novel activation/etch method is disclosed for conductive polymer substrates and conductive polymer composite substrates to achieve good adhesion to subsequently applied coatings. The method in a preferred case involves anodically polarizing conductive polymers/polymer composites in aqueous etching solutions.

Abstract: Metal-coated polymer articles containing structural substantially porosity-free, fine-grained and/or amorphous metallic coatings/layers optionally containing solid particulates dispersed therein on polymer substrates, are disclosed. The substantially porosity-free metallic coatings/layers/patches are applied to polymer or polymer composite substrates to provide, enhance or restore vacuum/pressure integrity and fluid sealing functions. Due to the excellent adhesion between the metallic coating and the polymer article satisfactory thermal cycling performance is achieved. The invention can also be employed as a repair/refurbishment technique. The fine-grained and/or amorphous metallic coatings are particularly suited for strong and lightweight articles, precision molds, sporting goods, aerospace and automotive parts and other components exposed to thermal cycling and stress created by erosion and impact damage.

Abstract: An article of manufacture includes a substrate having an outer surface clad with a metal construct including one or more continuous metal layers, at least one of which is an amorphous layer or a microcrystalline layer having a grain size below 5000 nm. A bonding layer is provided between the substrate and the layered metallic construct so that the bonding layer is in direct contact with the substrate and with the layered metallic construct. The bonding layer is made of a substantially fully cured resin including at least 10% of a rubber. The layered metallic construct has peel strength greater than 10N/cm. Also provided is a process for making the article including coating an article outer surface with a bonding layer and a layered metallic construct. The bonding layer is substantially fully cured before the layered metal construct is bonded to the article. The coated article is annealed.

Abstract: Metal-clad polymer articles containing structural fine-grained and/or amorphous metallic coatings/layers optionally containing solid particulates dispersed therein, are disclosed. The fine-grained and/or amorphous metallic coatings are particularly suited for strong and lightweight articles, precision molds, sporting goods, automotive parts and components exposed to thermal cycling although the coefficient of linear thermal expansion (CLTE) of the metallic layer and the substrate are mismatched. The interface between the metallic layer and the polymer is suitably pretreated to withstand thermal cycling without failure.

Abstract: Se describen los artículos poliméricos con chapa metálica que contienen recubrimientos metálicos de grano fino y/o amorfos, estructurales/capas que contienen opcionalmente partículas sólidas dispersas en éste. Los recubrimientos metálicos de grano fino y/o amorfos son particularmente adecuados para artículos fuertes y de peso ligero, moldes de precisión, artículos deportivos, partes automovilísticas y componentes expuestos a los ciclos térmicos, aunque el coeficiente de expansión térmica lineal (CLTE) de la capa metálica y el sustrato no sean similares. La interfase entre la capa metálica y el polímero es adecuadamente pretratada para resistir los ciclos térmicos sin falla.
