Technology for plating surface of glass fiber with metal layer

Abstract

The invention relates to the technical field of glass fiber production and discloses a technology for plating the surface of glass fiber with a metal layer. The technology needs a device for plating the surface of the glass fiber with the metal layer. The technology comprises the following steps of (1) conducting purifying, wherein heat treatment at the temperature of 205-255 DEG C is conducted onthe glass fiber; (2) conducting coarsening, wherein the glass fiber obtained after oil removal in the step (1) is placed in a coarsening solution, the temperature of the coarsening solution is raisedto 30-40 DEG C, and dipping is conducted for 4-7 min under the condition of keeping the temperature; (3) conducting cleaning, wherein the coarsened glass fiber is flushed with water, so that remaining coarsening liquid on the surface of the glass fiber is removed; (4) conducting sensitizing, wherein the glass fiber washed in the step (3) is placed in a sensitizing solution for sensitizing treatment at the room temperature; (5) conducting activation, wherein the sensitized glass fiber in the step (4) is directly placed in an activation solution, stirring is performed for 3-5 h, and then standing is performed for 1-2 h; (6) conducting cleaning; and (7) conducting drying. The technology for plating the surface of the glass fiber with the metal layer improves layer plating efficiency and safety.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of glass fiber production, in particular to a process for coating a glass fiber surface with a metal layer. Background technique [0002] Glass fiber is an inorganic non-metallic material with excellent performance. It has various types and has the characteristics of good insulation, strong heat resistance, good corrosion resistance and high mechanical strength. It has been widely used in traditional industries, agriculture, construction and electronics, High-tech industries such as communication have become indispensable high-tech materials for sustainable development of human beings in the 21st century. However, the conductivity of glass fiber is poor. Therefore, a metal layer is plated on its surface, that is, the combination of metal plating technology and limit surface treatment to obtain conductive glass fiber. The method of using electroless plating technology to endow non-metallic material glass fibe...
