Abstract
A holder for electroless plating to hold a plurality of ceramic elements for ceramic electronic parts during electroless plating treatment, each surface of said ceramic elements being to be electroless plated, said holder comprising a plurality of cells to house each of said plurality of ceramic elements separately, and each of said cells having such a structure as to permit the flow communication of a plating solution into the cell.
Claims13
A holder for electroless plating adapted to hold a plurality of ceramic elements for ceramic electronic parts during electroless plating treatment, each surface of said ceramic elements to be electroless plated,
- said holder comprising a plurality of cells, each of which is adapted to house one of said plurality of ceramic elements,
- each of said cells having such a structure permitting flow communication of a plating solution into the cell,
- wherein said holder has a substantially elongated shape and comprises two walls arranged substantially parallel to each other, and a plurality of spacers linking said walls to each other at a plurality of points, and wherein said cells are distributed longitudinally and each is defined by a portion interposed between said walls and surrounded by spacers, and
- wherein at least one of said walls has at least one projection extending toward the inside of a cell to reduce the contact area of said wall with a ceramic element therein.
