Method for forming electroless plating electrode through selective cross-linking layer formation using laser

Proposed is a method for forming an electroless plating electrode through selective cross-linking layer formation using a laser, specifically, the method includes forming a selective cross-linking layer by sintering a water-soluble polymer thin film layer, which is formed on a substrate by coating, to form a patterned shape thereon using a laser, followed by forming a precise metal pattern by electroless-plating the selective cross-linking layer with copper, nickel, or other metals. The method offers a simple manufacturing process, cost efficiency, and flexibility in manufacturing without being limited by the shape of a substrate, thereby patterns may be formed on various substrates. A catalyst material for electroless plating is mixed with a polymer material to directly cross-link the substrate.

Preparation method of silver-coated copper powder

The present invention provides a method for preparing silver-coated copper powder, which relates to the technical field of metal powder preparation. This preparation method directly prepares a copper core by chemical reduction method, then uses electroless plating method to grow a silver layer on its surface, and finally uses jet milling to improve the density of the powder. In the present invention, reducing agents with different reduction effects are added twice to reduce copper sulfate, which reduces the initial reaction rate, makes the whole reaction stable, and improves the sphericity of copper crystal nuclei. At the same time, sulfate radicals in the reaction system can form silver sulfate precipitation with silver ions in the subsequent reaction, further slowing down the reduction rate of silver ammonia complex ions and enabling the dense growth of the silver layer. At the same time, the unreacted completely glucose remaining in the reaction system can continue to reduce silver ammonia complex ions when silver ammonia solution is added dropwise later. By strictly controlling the growth rate of silver powder from crystal seeds to particles, the present invention reduces the structural defects caused by rapid growth and improves the performance of the final product.
