Abstract
The invention relates to molded pieces of plastic having at least a partial metal coating of their surfaces. The surfaces to be coated are roughened up by means of suitable pretreatment so that a good adhesion of the metal coating on the molded pieces is provided. For the support of this metal coating additionally a cover layer is applied. The molded pieces can also consist of shrinkable material which e.g. are also designed in the form of enveloping objects such as cable fittings.
Claims6
Molded pieces of heat shrinkable plastic material having at least a partial metal coating of their surfaces, said surfaces being roughened up through pretreatment, and including a cover layer applied over said metal coating comprising a hot melt adhesive which softens under the influence of heat.
Formed pieces of heat shrinkable plastic material having an exposed surface,
- said exposed surface being roughened up through pretreatment,
- at least a partial metal coating covering said roughened up surface,
- a cover layer applied over said metal coating,
- said cover layer comprising a hot melt adhesive which softens under the influence of heat, whereby when said formed parts shrink under the influence of heat, said cover layer softens to accomodate the shrinking of said formed parts.
