Zusammenfassung:A metal coated plastic and method of preparation thereof use a poly-diamine-quinone polymer as a binder, whereby a metal coating adheres to and is immobilized on a plastic surface. The poly-diamine-quinone includes the formula: (* CHEMICAL STRUCTURE *) wherein R is alkyl, monocyclic, cycloalkyl, monocyclic heterocyclic, aromatic, siloxyl, silyl and the alkyl, alkoxy, carboxyl and amino derivatives thereof, and n is about 70-700. The method of preparation includes coating a plastic substrate with a poly-diamine-quinone polymer, applying a metal coating to the poly-diamine-quinone polymer coated plastic, and curing the metal coated plastic. A further method is disclosed for imparting an electrical conductance to the metal coated plastic of the invention.
